ok i got a avital remote for my truck..... its the 4 botton one... i looked up how to install it but i couldnt find good instructions.. anyone know how to instal it???

 

You INSTALL a radio or speakers. You Program a remote.

If you are referring to a Key Fob for the doors the instructions are in the Manual in the Glove box. Assuming your truck is already set up for keyless entry.

 

If you are referring to the fob and don't have the manual to the truck I went ahead and found your answer on GOOGLE.




1. Close all vehicle doors.

2. Insert the key into the ignition.

3. Hold down the power UNLOCK button on the driver’s door panel-continue to hold
down until instructed to release in step 9.

4. Perform steps 5 through 8 in fairly rapid succession.

5. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position (as far as you can go without starting the
engine).

6. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.

7. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.

8. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.

9. Release the power unlock button on the door panel. The vehicle will lock and unlock
the doors automatically.

10. Hold down the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on the transmitter simultaneously until
the door locks and unlocks.
This step may take up to 30 seconds.

11. Repeat step 10 NOW for each additional transmitter (including any existing
transmitters).

12. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position in order to exit the transmitter programming
mode.

 

it worked for a stock key pad that i stole off my dads spare keys.. but it didnt work for the avital remote i bought...??? i tried it like 20 times and it wouldnt work.. but the stock key pad worked on the first try..????

 

so your trying to program an aftermarket remote to a stock alarm?..

 

im pertty sure its stock.. when i bought it i had a big sticker on the fan under the hood that said this vehicle has remote start.. but it didnt come with a key pad.. the stock key pad programed right away.. but the avital one never worked.

 

What he means is the AVITAL fob is not a Stock GM remote.... There lies your problem. They key fob is not made to work with a Stock unit. It's an After Market fob

 

I think that he's trying to program an aftermarket fob to an aftermarket system, judging from the remote start warning sticker that he mentioned. Even so, it has to be the correct fob for that system. I programmed one to my future ex-wife's DEI remote start a year or so ago, just can't remember how I did it. (DEI and Avital are the same co. I believe)
