For anyone who wants to try programming it will be a test of your patience. I bought a new fob for my 19 and programmed it myself. It was one of those things where I went through the process 3 times doing it exactly the same each time. After 2 tries I was getting worried. But the 3rd try it worked. Why? I have no idea but I now have an extra working fob.

If that is the case, then they have changed the part number for the 2014-15 FOB to 5950. I will update my records to reflect that change.
I now wonder if they have done an update on the other FOB numbers too?
Thanks
Elmer

The C7 has both a fob (remote keyless entry- RKE) that must be electronically matched with the car, and a mechanical key that must be physically cut and only will unlock the trunk slot and glove box. We have three fobs that all will unlock/start our 2017 2LT, but only the first two will work the memory seats etc. We also have three mechanical keys that are fully interchangeable, all work in either slot.
