Unhappy keyless remote

New here Just bought a 2010 lt HHR with 41,000 ? my keyless remote does not work . checked to make sure the battry is good, not sure if they gave me the right one to the right car. Should /can i check any thing before I pay to have it progamed at the dealer. I am 3 hours from the lot i bought at so going back soon is not a option

Welcome to the forum! My first two key fobs, the solder came off the battery holder. That would be my first guess.

Do you mean the doors will not lock/unlock and the panic does not work?

Your local Autozone/Advance etc. will have a fob tester on the checkout counter, so you can start by checking the fob.

No, there is no easy way. But, check in the DIC to make sure the settings are correct, the directions are in the Owner Manual, available here https://www.chevyhhr.net/forums/general-hhr-4/online-owners-manual-3074/, or from the seller or in your glove box, or from any GM dealer.

If you are talking about remote start, you may not have it, check the label on the glove box door for AP3, that means you have remote start. If you have it, you must follow the directions (lock,lock start).


I was typing at the same time you were.

3 buttons is the right number for an HHR that did not come with auto-start - Lock, Unlock, and Panic.

His does not have AP3, no remote start, he did not say if it was a panel.

Panel with RS would have 6. Sedan/wagon with RS would have 4.

That's just incomplete info you're posting.
I have a 2010 with a 5 speed, bought new. It has 3 button remotes.
