To match transmitters to your vehicle:
1. Turn the ignition key to ON.
2. Clear any warning messages on the Driver
Information Center (DIC) by pressing the
RESET button.
3. Press the OPTIONS button on the DIC several times
until the blank page is displayed, then press and hold
the RESET button for two seconds.
4. When the message FOB TRAINING is displayed,
push the RESET button once. The message
HOLD LK + UNLK 1ST FOB in the DIC
will be displayed.
5. Press and hold the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on
the transmitter simultaneously for 15 seconds.
6. When a transmitter is learned (matched), the DIC
will display FOB LEARNED and then prompt you
to learn the next transmitter.
7. Repeat Steps 5 and 6 for each additional transmitter.
8. Remove the key from the ignition.

Edit...Too Slow a poster I am.

I'll add this:

Sometimes it takes a seemingly long time for the horn to chirp and say "FOB LEARNED"

I never had the horn blow for the FOB's.

Maybe you mean the Tire Pressure Sensors.

Default One Step Programing for Key Fob

Stand next to the driver’s door.
Depress the “lock” and “unlock” buttons simultaneously.
In ~ 12 seconds the horn will honk.
Repeat with 2nd key fob.
This works w/ my 2000 Coupe
