Learn to program the remote to your 2004 Chevy Colorado without any help from the dealer.
The Chevy Colorado came out in 2004, taking the place of the long produced S10 truck in the Chevrolet truck lineup. The Colorado is larger than the S10. Althought the Colorado is well equippped, base models do not include power door locks, and thus, do not include a remote key fob.
Programming Instructions:
Note: This is the same for many GM vehicles.
Sit in the driver’s seat. Insert the key into the ignition but don’t turn it. Push and hold the “Lock” button on the door. Continue to hold it. Turn the key to on, off, and then back to on, rapidly. Release the “Lock” button. The doors will sound. The remote is ready to be programmed. Push and hold “Unlock” and “Lock” on the remote for 20 seconds. The remote is programmed to the vehicle.

Woah! I’m really digging the template/theme of
this website. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times
it’s difficult to get that “perfect balance” between user
friendliness and visual appeal. I must say you have done a excellent job with
this. Additionally, the blog loads super
fast for me on Safari. Excellent Blog!

Soooooo, I have a 2004 Colorado, but it doesn’t have power lock switch. It’s got the power lock doors but there are zero switches for locks inside the truck. The only way to unlock and lock the doors are by the wireless remote. My question is since the above instruction require that you use the door locks to program the new remote would I not be able to do this on my own? Would I have to take mine to a mechanic?

Didn’t work for mine either. I do have the inside power door lock switch but it never made any sound. We’ve tried a half dozen so called ways to get them to program and nothing happened
