Reset Chevrolet keyless remote from another Chevrolet?

You can't reset a Chevrolet keyless remote using another Chevrolet. Keyless remotes are programmed to specific vehicles using a process that involves the car's computer system. There's no way to transfer the programming from one car to another, even if they're the same make and model.

To reprogram or replace a Chevrolet keyless remote, you'll need to:

* Use the programming procedure in your owner's manual: Many Chevrolet models allow you to program remotes yourself following steps outlined in the owner's manual. This usually involves a sequence of button presses inside the car.

* Visit a Chevrolet dealership: If you can't find the programming instructions or the self-programming procedure doesn't work, a Chevrolet dealership has the equipment and expertise to program new remotes.

* Go to a locksmith specializing in car keys: Some locksmiths have the tools to program Chevrolet key fobs. Make sure they have experience with your specific Chevrolet model and year.

In short, having another Chevrolet won't help you reprogram your key fob. You need to use the car's system, a dealer, or a qualified locksmith.
