Default 2000 vette remote for keyless entry

the remote for keyless entry does not work. i used the owners manual to try and "match" (learning the remote) the remote and it did not work.

I also tried to synchronize the remote by pressing unlock and lock simultaneously until I heard the horn chirp and that also did not work.

any ideas as to how I can fix this? any ideas as to what may be wrong?

Did you replace the battery before trying to sync it to the car?

If you haven't replaced the battery, try that. If you have, then the remote may need replacement. They do wear out over time.

The 2000 remote is a one year part #, you can not use the 97/99 or 2001/2004. Check with Gene his prices are the best. Bill

Do a search for treads on the forum. a couple of weeks ago someone posted a fix for the key fobs that stop working. It involves a loose chip inside the fob.

Do you have a link? I am having trouble finding that. I tried searching on some different terms but came up with nada.
