remote won't work

[Bucwheat]

I let the battery run down on Bucwheat,put a charge on and now the remote won't work,anyone know what to do,the battery in the remote is only a year old.

[Bucwheat]

I figured it out.

[tbrent]

Hey buddy... Just saw this.. Was it holding the lock and unlock buttons down for 5 seconds or something like that?

[Bucwheat]

Know I had to go into the DIC and relearn the remote,pretty simple really.

[tbrent]

Ahhhh... Noted.

well can you enlighten us ? in case we run into that problem, thanks.

Insert the key into the ignition and turn it to the "RUN" position.
Turn off power to the radio.
Press the "RESET" button on the Driver Information Center (DIC) to clear any warning lights. The DIC is to the right of the instrument panel.
Press the "OPTIONS" button on the DIC until a blank message appears on the screen.
Press and hold "RESET" on the DIC for 2 seconds.
Push the "RESET" button once when the screen reads "FOB TRAINING." This will bring up the message "HOLD LK + UNLK 1ST FOB" on the DIC screen.
Hold down "LOCK" and "UNLOCK" on the remote at the same time for 15 seconds.
Watch the DIC, as it will read "FOB LEARNED" when the programming is accepted for that remote.
Repeat steps 8 and 9 to program any additional key

thanks, i usually disconnect the battery during winter and needed to know this

[tbrent]

^^^ I was considering doing that this winter as well... Good info B! Thanks!

[Bucwheat]

Why not just put a trickle charger on it,I rarely drive mine ,maybe once a month and I bought a trickle charger and it works great just forgot to plug it up after we took it on Vacation to the beach.

Hey Bobby.. I have a trickle charger but if I spend all winter cutting on the vette to get my GB on I just figured maybe I'll pull it out of the car
