- A step by step video on how to program a smart key remote fob to a 2015 - 2016 GMC Yukon.
More free DIY programming instructions available at www.ProgramYou...
*This will only apply to 2015 and 2016 GMC Yukon's that have push button start ignitions.
A new smart key remote fob can be programmed to the vehicle when there is one programmed remote. To program, the vehicle must be off and all remotes, both currently programmed and new, must be with you.
1. Remove the key from the key from the programmed remote.
2. Place the programmed remote in the cupholder or passenger seat.
3. Insert the vehicle key into the key lock cylinder on the driver door handle. Then turn the key counterclockwise, to the unlock position, five times within 10 seconds. The Driver Information Center (DIC) displays READY FOR REMOTE #2, 3, 4, ETC.
4. Place the new remote in the remote pocket/insert. Open the center console storage area and the storage tray. The remote pocket/insert is in front of the storage area next to the center console storage area between the driver and front passenger seats.
5. Press the ENGINE START/STOP button. When the remote is learned, the DIC display will show that it is ready to program the next remote.
6. Remove the remote from the remote pocket and press unlock or lock on the remote. To program additional remotes, repeat Steps 4-6. When all additional remotes are programmed, press and hold the ENGINE START/STOP button for approximately 12 seconds to exit programming mode.
7. Return the key back into the remote.
This how-to video tutorial can be used to program the smart key remote fob on the following GMC models:
2015 GMC Yukon ( SLE, SLT and Denali )
2016 GMC Yukon ( SLE, SLT and Denali )

Great video!! I hate how people drag out videos much longer than necessary. I had the fob for my 2016 Yukon XL Denali reprogrammed within 2.5 minutes. And it saved me the $225 my dealer wanted to charge me. Amazing! Thank you!!
You're Welcome! Glad it helped
Perfect! Saved me over 700$ on two additional keys and programming.
Initially my screen stayed black on a 2016 Yukon Denali, but once I put the key in the programming slot it showed up with the display
I'm at the dealership now. They quoted me 175 for programming a key. For less than 5mins of labor? I came straight here and found what I'm looking for. Thank you for the information. It is definitely an escape room tactic I wouldn't have figured out.
You're Welcome!
Thank you! Thank you! You saved me $275 from the "full salon" dealer treatment of $500 plus tax. Really appreciate it.
You're Welcome! Glad it helped
Awesome video it worked. Dealer told me i had to pay an additional $180 to have it programmed and i couldnt do it with out a scanner. However this video worked perfect. Thank you!
You're Welcome!
I hate that I had to wait 30 minutes, but so glad this worked! Thanks so much!!
You're Welcome!
I loved how you got to the point and didn’t drag on. My favorite how to video yet. And it worked.
Glad it helped
Great simple to the point clear video! I just got my new fob and within 3 minutes or less it was done. I forgot to hold the start button for a 12 count and the new-or old fob wouldn’t start the vehicle. I then did the 12 count and all is well. Thanks again!
Thanks! glad it helped
Awesome instructional video.
Service tech could not get the fob programmed. Had to try twice. Had to leave the key in the door after the 5 turns.
Saved a 150 $ service call to the dealer.
Thank you
Glad it helped!
I went back and FOllOWED the time and start ignition presses. It worked. Follow his easy direction and you’ll understand he’s the best
Glad it helped!
Thanks. Worked like a charm. The only difference for my 2015 Denali was that the info screen was still totally black and blank so I initially thought it wasn't working, but I continued on with the process and it worked. Thanks
You're Welcome! Yeah, some vehicle only show the messages for a few seconds right when the door is opened
I was having an issue getting the programming screen to show up. After several failed attempts, I finally got it to work by starting the vehicle and shutting it off again.. then following the steps in this video.
cool - glad you got it figured out
I Never got the program screen to show up. 2017 Yukon
I'm having the same problem on my 2015 yukon
I wish you this message would carry the same weight as me tellin you this in person, Thank You! I highly appreciate this video and would definitely share with anyone I ever knew to come into this type situation🤝 Thank you! God Bless 🙏🏽
You're Welcome! Glad it helped
Thanks, worked the 1st time after following your instructions. Saved me $65 I would have had to pay the Local Locksmith.
Glad it helped!
Thank you so much for this video. I just programmed my new key fob to my 2015 Yukon Denali and it works perfectly.
You're welcome! Glad it helped
I had a key cut on my worn out key, ordered two new fobs on eBay and used these simple instructions to program them both. My only issue is it seemed like it wasn't detecting the original or the second programmed key. I only had to hold down the button for more than 12 seconds to exit programming mode (a couple times) and they both work (all three counting the original)! Saved me hundreds. Thanks!
You're Welcome! Glad it helped
My go to video. Third time using it. Thanks... again.

Thanks for the great video. I have two vehicles, one Yukon and one Tahoe. I want to make replacement keys. But I don't have the physical key for the Tahoe? I have the fob, just not the metal key. Is there a workaround?
Unfortunately not
@@PYR-Autook thanks the reply. I try and avoid going to dealer at all costs but only $25 to cut the key from the VIN isn't bad I guess.
Great video! thanks!! Anyone know why the theft deterrent system keeps kicking in for no reason? got new fobs, new batteries, etc...
If it dont work and the top part is all worn, just take both fobs apart and swap tops. Just make sure the correct board is in it.
Thanks brother worked great!
You're welcome! Glad it helped
Excellent Video, Thank you sir!
You're Welcome!
Very clear instructions. Where is a good place to get a new replacement GMC Fob for 2015 Yukon?
Thanks - I would recommend bit.ly/CarAndTruckRemotes.
Great job on this video!
Thanks!
Worked perfectly for me. It didn't show the Ready for remote screen until after I pressed the stop start button the first time. But then I noticed I was programming remote #4. I bought this vehicle used is there a way to remove previous remotes from the vehicles programming?
The proceudre below will erase all previous remotes and the order in which you program them back in will determine the remote #. You will need to start he proceudre with all the working keys far enough away from the vehicle so they cannot be read th-cam.com/video/9XxsQfoK_pU/w-d-xo.html
Worked great! Thank you!
You’re Welcome! Glad it helped
Thank you
You're welcome!
What if you lost the key fob and don’t have a fob that already works?
This should work with 2016 GMC Sierra - only on board programming, not programming tool is needed?
no - unfortuneatly there is no manual way program the fobs for a 2016 Sierra
@@PYR-Auto How about 2016 GMC Denali add new smart remote ? I will try and find out today provided my customer remotes are good.
I can't seem to find a video of you doing this same programming with a key fob and a keyed start/stop (not push start). Thanks!
You cannot program a fob to a non-push button start vehicle - it will require an automotive locksmith or dealership. You can program the ignition key in many cases though. Those instructions can be found here www.ProgramAutoKeys.com
@@PYR-Auto Thanks for getting back to me. There was only 1 when I bought the truck but wanted a backup. I was just trying to avoid the $300 and just buy the fob myself and program it. Guess that's not possible.
It really works thanks
You're Welcome!
Awsome thank u you save me some money
You're Welcome!
Thx so much bro I was about to pay 160 to program it

After I add the new key will the old one still work
Yes
2016 GMC Sierra does NOT have a transmitter pocket nor a push start button. Any suggestions for programming a extra key pod?
There is no manual way to program fobs for the non push-button start vehicles - you will need an automotive locksmith or dealership
Where is the best place to purchase a new key fob for 2015 Yukon Denali XL
check out bit.ly/CarAndTruckRemotes
Which key fob would you recommend?? We have a 2016 gmc denali xl
I would recommend checking out bit.ly/CarAndTruckRemotes
I dont have a push start button so how would i program a new extra fob? 2015 GMC Sierra 1500
unfortunately there is no manual way to program the fobs for the non push button start vehicles
But where does the physical key go in? Having a little care trouble where my 2015 GMC didn’t go off, it’s like the car has a mind of its own!
What would be the process for a 2015 Sierra 1500 , I lost the remote but have one key.
Unfortunately there is no manual way to program the fob if you do not have a push button start ignition - you will need an automotive locksmith or dealership
Where did you buy the key I some on Amazon but the reviews aren't that good
check out bit.ly/CarAndTruckRemotes... wherever you get if from, I would recommend getting an OEM one
Hi ! How I can do with a Yukon xl that no has start button, is just a key for the ignition ?
you can't manually program a fob to the non-push button start vehicles - it will require an automotive locksmith or dealership. You can program the ignition key yourself in many cases though - those instructions can be found here www.ProgramAutoKeys.co
Not sure what I'm doing wrong. I followed the steps but remote is not registering. In the last step 12 second hold on start button is it suppose to confirm the addition? Or when I press the start button one time before clicking on remote being added is it suppose to display something? Thanks in advance!
The new remote should be programmed after the stop start button is pressed - the display should read "ready for remote 3" or 4,5,6 etc. However some vehicles only seem to show that message for a few moments right when the door is opened or closed.
Do I have to get the new key cut if I already have a working one? Or can I just link it and use it?
You don have to cut the new emergency key from your new remote in order for the programming to work. You can just use the the emergency key from you existing remote and to get it into programming mode.
I did this, just as you instructed… now my car won’t start, no power at and my original key fob doesn’t work. Do you know why this would happen??
sounds the vehicle may still be in programing mode - when you open and close the drivers door are you getting any messages on your dash?
Same thing happened to me. No messages. The truck just won’t start or activate. The only way to get it to start is using the remote start but then you can’t even take it out of remote start mode by pressing brake and ignition button. Please help
Nice
Thanks!
Thanks bro
You're Welcome!
Great video. Thank you. Ps...increase the dialog volume if you can. Otherwise, very informative.
Thanks! Noted
Is there a way to program a 2016 Sierra Denali key fob? It uses a separate key and fob.
Thanks
Unfortunately there is no manual programming procedure for the non-push button start ignition vehicles
This didnt work for me. I bought a used genuine GMC key with matching part numbers and had no luck with this procedure. What did I do wrong?
if you're getting the vehicle into programming mode but the vehicle is not responding to the remote then it is likely a problem with the key fob
@PYR-Auto I assumed that and asked the vendor to send me another fob. I might have to buy some type of GM scan tool so I can figure this out. There is no way I would take it to GM for programming when I can buy something that will allow me to scan and adjust things in GM vehicles for what it would cost me to have the program the fob.
I have a problem with the remote start to warm the vehicle up
I have a 2015 GMC Yukon with a key start not a push bottom. Is there a way to program the FOB without a programmer.
unfortunately not
My car is Denali yukon 2015 with 433MHz remote, the new remote is also 433MHz but it doesn't work with me. What is the problem?
even if the remote is the correct Mhz it could still have other issues
what if you lost your only key? is there a way to program one without an existing remote?
Yes - you can find that video here th-cam.com/video/9XxsQfoK_pU/w-d-xo.html
I don't know why but my screen just stays black, I can't get to the ready screen
What if I lost original key what do I do then?? Please respond this would be a life saver thanks lol!

@@PYR-Auto they say I need a key code to get it cut do you know the specific key code? 2015 Yukon?
@@1P2ARK05 Yes, you will need the emergency key cut by code. Every car has a different one. The dealerships and some Automotive Locksmiths can look them up by your VIN
@@PYR-Auto 💯💯
After I did the 5 key turns, my dash said something along the lines of remote activation Standby or something along those lines. Like it wasn’t fully ready?
I've done this on many different Yukons and have never experienced that
@@PYR-Auto question my wife's key fob got stolen..any way to delete that one from car? Have new fob and goin to program that one
Having issue with the key won't fit to turn clockwise on drivers side door?
It’s counter clockwise
Didnt work for me. According to the owners manual this method is if you have 2 recognized remotes already. If you have only 1 then you have to follow a different method which requires clearing and then relearning the Original remote. The message display will say Ready for Remote #2 for method one, OR it will say Remote Learn pending for mehod 2 which takes 30 min
I turned clockwise 5 times within 10 seconds but driver information center doesn't show. Many times.. What's the problem??
Some vehicles only show the message on the dash right when the door is opened or closed
What if I don't have a functioning FOB or key? Mine was run over by a car and doesn't work anymore.
You will need a cut emergency key but you can program a new remote without any existing - you can find that video here th-cam.com/video/9XxsQfoK_pU/w-d-xo.html
How about GMC that got no start button? I only got the key starter one. Pls need help
There is no manual way to program fobs for non-push button start ignitions but you can program the ignition keys. You can find those instructions here www.programautokeys.com/classified/yukon-browse-794.aspx
Does this still apply to a 2017 model?
the 2017 model requires two working fobs in order to be use this procedure
Great video but this didn’t work for me
How about 2017 Yukon SLE no start button, how do I program?

@@dannydang8536 No - none of the fobs are manually programmable on the non-push button start vehicles.
I have same, with push button start, and all that happens is my anti-tamper horn starts beeping after I open door after the 5 turns.

There is no manual to program the fobs on the non push button start vehicles - you will need an automotive locksmith or dealership. You can program the ignition keys in most cases though - you can find those instructions at www.ProgramAutoKeys.com
