The procedure will require three ten minutes cycles to
complete the matching process. Do the following:
1. The vehicle must be off.
2. Place the new, unrecognized transmitter in the
glove box transmitter pocket with the buttons
facing towards the passenger’s side.
3. Go to the rear of the vehicle and insert the vehicle
key into the key cylinder located above the license
plate. See Hatch/Trunk on page 2-14 for more
information on the key cylinder.
4. Open the trunk.
5. Turn the key five times within five seconds.
6. The DIC message will display OFF-ACCESSORY
TO LEARN.
7. Press the ACC button (ignition switch).
8. The DIC will read WAIT 10 MINUTES and will
count down to zero, one minute at a time.
9. The DIC will display OFF-ACCESSORY TO
LEARN again.
10. Press the ACC button (ignition switch).
11. The DIC will read WAIT 10 MINUTES and will
count down to zero, one minute at a time.
12. The DIC will display OFF-ACCESSORY TO
LEARN again.
13. Press the ACC button (ignition switch).
14. The DIC will read WAIT 10 MINUTES and will
count down to zero, one minute at a time.
15. A beep will sound and the DIC will read READY
FOR FOB #1. At this time, all previously known
transmitters have been erased.
16. Once the transmitter is recognized and programmed,
a beep will sound and the DIC will display READY
FOR FOB #2.
If you have additional transmitters to program, take
transmitter 1 out of the transmitter pocket and place
transmitter 2 in the pocket. This can be done repeatedly
until up to four transmitters have be programmed.
The DIC will then display MAX # FOBS LEARNED and
will exit the programming mode.
When you are done programming transmitters, press
the ACC button (ignition switch).

but.....I really think the instructions in the FAQ thread are more detailed and easier to understand than the ones in the manual. In the manual, there is no explanation of a clear difference between the short and the long procedure and why one would be used over the other. There is also no test of the glovebox slot...the instructions in the manual assume that all the hardware and software is always working, which we have certainly found is not always true. I'm not saying this because I wrote the instructions in the FAQ...I wrote those instructions because of the lack of clarity that I saw in the manual and the confusion here on the forum over the whole programming system in the C6.

Give a man a fish and he will be feed for a day. Teach him to fish and he will be fed for the rest of his life. Yell at him to get off his butt and go catch his own fish and he will think you are an a$$ but he will make sure his hook is baited and in the water before complaining there are no fish in the river.

No apology needed as I didn't take it that way....I just thought I would explain what it was that I thought was missing from the instructions in the manual. Another example is that the manual really doesn't explain that the fobs are stationary devices and that we are just telling the car which fobs to accept...we are not actually 'programming' the fobs themselves. There is also a general misunderstanding of the difference between fob #1 and fob #2...people tend to think that they are electrically different, when the real difference is just the order that they were programmed from the factory. Any fob can be set as #1, 2,3 or 4 by programming and then putting a sticker with 1,2,3 or 4 over the number molded into the fob case.
