Default Passive Keyless Entry Programming Help Please!!

I can get into the programming mode, but that's as far as I can figuire out. Once I've got it in the programming mode, how do I tie the transmitter into the car?

Cheers!
Wendell

Programming Transmifers
The Passive Keyless Entry system allows up to three transmitters to be matched to your Corvette. Each
transmitter has its own code. To operate with your particular vehicle, the code needs to be programmed into the system.

To Engage the Programming Mode:
1. Move all transmitters out of range.
2.Turn the ignition key on.
3. Push the TRIP ODO button on the Driver Information Center twice.
4. Within five seconds, press and hold the FUEL INFO button on the Driver Inforfiation Center until the PASSIVE KEYLESS ENTRY light comes on and stays on.
5. Turn the ignition key to the Off position, but leave the key in the ignition. The PASSIVE KEYLESS ENTRY light should flash once per second signaling that the system is ready to program the first transmitter. The number of times the light flashes corresponds to the number of the transmitter you're programming (once per second for the first trarrsmitter, twice per second for the second transmitter, and three times per second for the third transmitter).
Programming a Transmitter:
1. Bring transmitter into range.
2. The PASSIVE KEYLESS ENTRY light will come on-and stay on, signaling that-the code has been stored.
3. Move, the transmitter out of range. The system light will flash again and the system is ready for the next transmitter.
4. You can turn off the. programming mode by removing the key from the ignition or by turning the ignition on.
Turning off the programming mode before you program any transmitters will not cancel any transmitter codes already programmed into the system. Bringing more than one transmitter
into range at a time will make it difficult for the system to search for individual codes. The programming mode will shut off after two minutes if
you have not programed any or if you have taken the key out.

If a transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement can be purchased through your dealer.
If fewer than three transmitters are programmed, only those transmitters will work with your vehicle.
When the first transmitter is programmed, all previous transmitter codes will be erased. So when programming a new transmitter, other transmitters must be reprogrammed.

Thanks bud! I had my transmitter with me when I entered the programming mode, and the way I read your mail, I should have had it out of range, brougnt it into range, taken it back out of range, and then killed the deal since I only have one transmitter. I'll give it a shot.

Cheers!
