Smart Key Remote Programming Guide – 2023 Genesis GV80

Important Information: The 2023 Genesis GV80 does not support onboard programming for smart key remote fobs. Programming must be carried out by a qualified technician using advanced diagnostic equipment.

Programming Instructions:

• Step 1: Contact a certified automotive technician or authorized service provider with experience in smart key systems and access to manufacturer-approved diagnostic tools.
• Step 2: Confirm that the technician uses compatible software that can securely interface with your vehicle’s electronic control system for accurate key registration.
• Step 3: If the vehicle is drivable, consider visiting the service location rather than requesting mobile service. This may help reduce additional travel or service fees.
• Step 4: Schedule an appointment ahead of time to ensure the technician is available and prepared with the proper tools for your specific vehicle.
• Step 5: Bring all existing smart keys with you. In some cases, the system requires all remotes to be present and reprogrammed together to maintain full functionality.
• Step 6: Once on-site, the technician will connect a diagnostic interface to the vehicle’s onboard port, typically located beneath the dashboard.
• Step 7: The technician will use the diagnostic tool to begin the programming sequence and register the new smart key to the vehicle’s electronic system.
• Step 8: After programming is complete, all key functions—including locking, unlocking, remote start, and push-button ignition—will be tested to confirm successful operation.
• Step 9: Personally test each smart key before concluding the visit to ensure everything works correctly.
• Step 10: Store spare remotes in a secure location and consider programming a backup key for added convenience or emergency situations.
