I have a remote for my Chevy 2006 Uplander, with a weird problem:
1. The only button that works on it is the alarm button (the lights will flash on the car and the horn will sound), I changed the battery, thinking it was dead. The battery change made no difference.
2. Then I tried to re-program the remote. I followed the steps perfectly, but the car will not enter the programming mode (the doors won’t lock and then unlock after the ignition is cycled on/off 4 times).
What is wrong with my remote? Why does the alarm work and no other buttons? Why won’t the car enter the programming mode?

Answer: A remote is basically a battery powered circuit board. Pop open the remote and remove the circuit board. Get some foam glass cleaner and clean the area between the circuit board and the buttons. Then clean the underside of the button area. Chances are real good that your problem is now fixed.
