Or, you have code AP3 listed in your glove box and you have activated remote start in the DIC a 3 button remote will work

1) press lock
2) press lock + panic
on the inside the "start" button connects the lock & the panic. the guts of the fobs are the same BTW.
New cars came with 1 4-button remote and 1 3-button remote, used cars come with whatever they come with. The fleet/rentals came with just the 3-button, or none.

This applies to pre 2009 anyway. If you do not have remote start option in the DIC, SORRY, requires a new BCM software flash.

I have accessed the DIC and remote start is on. I have a AP3 code. I tried remote start pressing the lock and panic buttons at the same and it did not work. Any suggestions?

I have a 2007 HHR with the 4 button remote. When I follow the procedures to start it: lock and then 4 seconds on the remote start button the lights flash after 4 seconds, but the car does not start. Makes it look like everything is there so I was wondering if it is deactivate. I do have the manual, but I can't find anything about activating the remote starter.

Bofornado....Try pressing the lock button twice, then the remote start button.
Check for a CEL or the hood latch switch , both will disable the remote start.

From your Owner Manual pg 200-201

Unfortunately it was 100 miles away in Des Moines and then got shipped to Louisville. Not a huge deal, but I was planning of flipping the car, and wanted as much working as possible.
