Just thought I'd let you know that my local Pontiac dealer charged me $52 for a new keyless remote plus another $30 to program it, when I bought it a year ago(wish I could make $30 for less than 5 minutes 'work'). This was for a 2000 GP GT. I totalled that car out a couple months ago, and still have that remote laying around- I don't know if it would be compatible w/ a '97 or not, but if you find that it is, email me at jmus57@yahoo.com and I'll make ya a deal. Later

Thanks for the offer. I picked up the new remote for $29.99 with free shipping here:

owned!!!!

No problem. I wish I would have known about that website at the time- I'm tired of getting bent over by dealerships.

I know how ya feel.

I've got a 2003 GP GT and one of my remotes stopped working.. I changed the battery but no difference.. I wanna try reprogramming it but I'm stuck at the step of turning the ignition to ACC without the key in there.. Mine won't budge.. AT ALL..

any help?

Thanks
Travis

47$ plus 25$ for programming here

anyone else had any issues with the ACC position with the ignition cylinder?

were the instructions just like the ones people post on here?

my keyless entry quit working... the remote is fine its the unit in the car is broke... 300 bucks to fix guess im stuck using the key

for $300, go with an aftermarket alarm instead!

I have a 2002 GP and when i bought it it only came with keys, no remotes (Not from dealership). Are all 02 GPs equipped with keyless entry and if not how can i find out? Don't you have to have it equipped with keyless entry in order to program a remote?

Look on the inside of the trunklid for a Service Parts Identification Label. It has a list of RPO (Regular Production Option) codes. You can decode them here: RPO Decoder

For example, the codes for a '98 are:
AU0 Lock Control, Remote Entry
A90 Lock Control, Rear Compartment Lid
Remote Control Electric Release
UA6 Theft Deterrent System
