Default Problem programming fobs on an 06 c6

Tried reprogramming my fobs erasing and reprogramming but now neither work. I can't even get my window up or start from glovebox. Before I reprogrammed both fobs would start car from glovebox. Help

If both fobs would start the car from the glove box, then they didn't need reprogramming. Probably just needed new fob batteries or remove an interfering electronic device.

Did the reprogramming seem to work from beginning to end? If not, post all the steps that worked and maybe they can still be reprogrammed.

I've enhanced your thread title to attempt to get someone who knows about programming fobs to respond.

Thank you. I had a dead car battery and replaced it. Then the fobs both quit later the next day. Odd but go replaced both batteries in them. Both could start car in glovebox. But still not recognized. Reprogrammed ok or so it seemed this am the long way and now nothing. I finally giggled one around for 5 min in glovebox and started so I got the window up.

OK, here's 2 things.

Thing 1) What to do if you get FOB not detected.
Thing 2) Programming procedure

Thing 1 ---> >> FOB not detected checklist <<


Thing 2 ---> >>C6 Fob Programming and Glove Box Slot Testing Procedures<<

Thank you. Looks like I am off to dealer. Glovebox will recognize after playing with fob but will not recognize either.
