About GM Accessory 2-Way Remote Start

The GM Accessory 2-way transmitter has the ability to operate a second vehicle equipped with a 2-way advanced remote start system, but often the

2-way transmitter may only be coded to one vehicle. If the customer presses the left side button twice within one second, the 2-way transmitter will

enter second vehicle mode and will not control the original vehicle until a subsequent double press of the left side button places the transmitter back

in first vehicle mode. Each vehicle mode of the 2-way transmitter should be thought of as an individual transmitter with its own unique code.

Test the Transmitter Battery

Note

This test should be performed prior to releasing the vehicle or transmitter to the customer.

All transmitter batteries should be tested immediately after installation of a 2-way remote start kit or replacement of a transmitter battery using the

following procedure.

1. Press the unlock button on the transmitter eight times consecutively.

2. After the eighth press of the unlock button, observe the battery gauge located in the upper right corner of the LCD display. The gauge should

read full (three bars inside the battery icon).

If after having a new battery installed, the battery goes dead within five months, the transmitter could have high sleep current, causing the battery to

go dead. Replace the transmitter.

Please follow this diagnostic or repair process thoroughly and complete each step. If the condition exhibited is resolved without completing every

step, the remaining steps do not need to be performed.

Determine if Transmitter is in Second Vehicle Mode

1. Press and release any of the face buttons on the 2-way transmitter and observe the display on power-up.

2. If the 2-way transmitter is in second vehicle mode, the second vehicle icon will be displayed on the left side of the transmitter display. Is the

2-way transmitter in second vehicle mode?

If Yes, the 2-way transmitter is working properly.

- Press and release the left side button twice within one second. The 2-way transmitter should exit second vehicle mode.

- Press and release the lock button. Press and release the unlock button.

- Confirm that the vehicle responds with the appropriate lock and unlock function.

- If Yes , the 2-way transmitter was in mode B.

- Press and release the left side button twice within one second. The 2-way transmitter should enter second vehicle mode.

- Use the "next available slot" method in the scan tool to program the 2-way transmitter to the 2-way RCDLR. Refer to Remote Control

Door Lock Transmitter Programming in SI.

- Both vehicle modes of the 2-way transmitter should now be coded to the vehicle.

If No:

The 2-way transmitter is not exhibiting the failure mode addressed by this bulletin. Refer to normal diagnostic procedures.
