Default Help with "Options Unavailable"

Howdy all!

Just bought an 05 C6. Dealership only had one FOB + key with the car. (they still owe me one)

I hit the options button, and get the message "options unavailable". I figured that the FOB I got was likely 3 or 4 considering it was preowned. So I went through the long programming process where you have to wait 10 mins x3. Got that working (car starts), and I'm assuming its now set as FOB 1, but I still get "options unavailable".

Do I need more than 1 FOB or am I missing something?

Thanks,
-Jordon

Its fine now. Personalization worked finally.

The long procedure works fine, even with only 1 FOB.

If/when you get another fob from the dealer, you should use the shorter procedure to program it as #2.
