Yes I did look through the search function, didn't see anything. ? did all 2006 HHR's come with remote door locks? reason I ask is I bought a used 2006 HHR LT 2.4 a/t po couldn't find fob's. went to O'reilly's & bought one of their Dorman replacement fob's with programmer. followed instructions DID NOT WORK!! worker from store tried still didn't work, they got a different fob & still wouldn't work?? DIC on dash doe's not have any wording as to reprogramming remote as per owners manual Thanks ps sorry I forgot what code tells if car came with remote start?

I'm not sure about remote door locks. If it was a rental I think they could be ordered without.

I know of no wording in the DIC about reprogramming the remote. You sure you got an HHR Owner Manual. See the link in my Sig for one.

 

Don, I got confused(seem to happen a lot these days lol) I was reading instructions on Autozones site about programming one of there fob's, that's when I looked at mine & didn't find any programming mode... thanks, Bill

 

Its in the owners manual.

 

Hey donbrew. No links showing in your sig once again.

For dwarfracer1. Here's the link to this site's online HHR Owners Manuals:

They just re activated the mobile GUI.

 

I used that set up and its utter garbage. dorman parts are usually decent but using that fob programmer as per instructions gave me transmission linear error codes and messed up with the shifting. I tossed it after the second try with the same errors. I had to clear the check engine lights and reset the ecu to get it to stop shifting out of gear because of the dorman key fob programmer. I paid the dealer 120 for one fob programmed. is it a rip . well yeah probably but I don't a a horrible shifting transmission anyway.

 

Did you drive the car with the programmer plugged in?
What was the code number? What is linear error?

 

How did resetting the ECM effect the TCM and how did either one get affected by the Dorman fob programmer?

Just questions to substantiate your claim.

 

It did nothing to mine!!
