02 burb key fob won't take programming
The programming for the fob is pretty simple:
insert key hold unlock on door panel cycle key on and off twice let go of unlock button I've done this and gotten the locks to cycle when I let go of the unlock button, telling me its in learning mode. But then when I hold the remote buttons down, the truck never responds and won't program. Any ideas what could be the issue?

Re: 02 burb key fob won't take programming
Check the basics.
Is the battery in the fob good? Is it the correct fob for your truck?

Brand new fob.
Replaced battery just in case. Confirmed with my buddies known working FOB for his burb.

Even if the part number on the case is correct the board inside may not be correct for your rig. Some TPMS tools have a remote FOB test mode to check whether a signal is being sent by a FOB.

Re: 02 burb key fob won't take programming
Yes but I used a known good working same fob from my buddies truck and my truck wouldn't take it either.
I can even activate key learn mode with a scanner and it won't detect either fob.

Re: 02 burb key fob won't take programming
One thing to consider with these NBS trucks is that you can program 3 key fobs to a single truck. When you go into Tech 2 for programming, you will see 3 slots. One thing I could never confirm and may be the possibility here is that once you program 3 fobs, then that’s it. I have found no way to delete fobs to open a space to program another.
Like I said, never been able to confirm this theory, but have experienced what you mentioned and Tech 2 data with all 3 spaces taken was the common denominator with the various trucks I have worked on. Just a thought…
