Special Tools

    • Scan Tool with capability of communicating on GMLAN
    • Service Programming System (SPS - TIS2WEB or equivalent)
    • J-46079 Tire Pressure Monitor Diagnostic Tool
    • Surface Cleaner (50 percent isopropyl alcohol, FS-1082 hi-flash naphtha or equivalent)
    • Adhesion Promoter GM P/N 12378462 (Canadian P/N 10953554)

Procedure

    Note: Please review this entire procedure before trying to perform it.

  1. Using the scan tool, perform the copy and paste TPM information procedure. This will extract the TPM tire type information as well as the sensor data from the existing RCDLR prior to its replacement and store this information in the scan tool. After RCDLR replacement, the tire type and sensor data stored in the scan tool is written to the new RCDLR, negating the need to perform the tire type setup and sensor learn procedure. This must be performed BEFORE removing the old RCDLR. Refer to Remote Control Door Lock Receiver Programming and Setup.
  2. Physically replace the factory Remote Control Door Lock Receiver (RCDLR) with the 2-way RCDLR included in the kit. Refer to Remote Control Door Lock Receiver Replacement. Do not program or reassemble yet.
  3. Note: The cargo screen retainer will need to be turned and twisted prior to pulling outward to release. There are two hidden bolts, one under the armrest and one behind the cargo screen retainer.

  4. Remove the right rear quarter lower trim panel. Refer to Quarter Lower Rear Trim Panel Replacement.

  20. Dry the trim panel thoroughly using a lint-free cloth.
  21. Note: 

       • The adhesion promoter must be used to assure adequate bonding of the antenna.
       • Mask off or protect areas before applying the adhesion promoter.

  22. Apply adhesion promoter GM P/N 12378462 (Canadian P/N 10953554) to the right rear quarter lower trim panel (2) in the area where you will install the antenna (1). Follow the adhesion promoter instructions on the product label, use a=33 mm (1 5/16 mm) and b=184 mm (7 1/4 in) for the dimensions on the figure.

  34. Operate the 2-way and factory transmitters in order to verify correct system operation. Refer to Keyless Entry System Description and Operation. Press a command button with the vehicle ignition ON in order to synchronize the 2-way transmitter clock to the vehicle clock.
  35. Reassemble. Refer to Quarter Lower Rear Trim Panel Replacement.
  36. Drive the vehicle at least 1 mile above 25 mph. This is to synchronize the 2-way transmitter odometer display to the vehicle odometer and update the tire pressure displays.
  37. Add the transmitters to the customer key rings.
  38. Place the 2-Way Advanced Remote Start owner manual in instrument panel compartment.
  39. Keep the vehicle dry. Allow 6-8 hours, at 15°C (60°F), for the antenna adhesive to cure after installation.
