Default Key fab programming help

Hello everyone, I have a quick question I have the original key fab for a 2001 corvette but recently bought an aftermarket one for backup. On the original key fab the unlock button does not work so I can’t do the traditional steps to program new key fab. Any help or tips on if there is another way to program the backup key fab would be greatly appreciated.

when you reprogram, you are reprogramming all the fobs. Just choose the new one as the first fob.
