For the LeSabre you usually had to take it to the dealer or have a locksmith program a new key fob. All forum posts and tips would tell you this. You can also program it with a high-level scanner as shown. Sorry guys there is no "easy" way to do this one!
Hey Bro, Thank You! You are def the 1st to bring up that module that controls the key fob! I picked up a relatively clean 120k mile 2000 LeSabre with No rust & I cannot get the key fobs to program. Does it require a scan tool? Because many videos say 2 hold the unlock button on the door while cycling the ignition 2 or 3 times, then let off the button & hold in both of the lock & unlock buttons on the key fob. Where do I get a replacement module & what is it called? My trunk latch is messed up so it's a chore to get inside the trunk until I spend another $50-75..
The module is called the "Remote Control Door Lock Receiver." I found one at my local salvage yard, BUT that service info is for the 2001 through 2005. This info most likely does not apply to your 2000 model.
I thought the Lesabre was the same from 2000-05? Anyways, Thank you! no one wlse has mentioned that control module! I appreciate it. Nothing happens at all when i hold the door unlock button & cycle the key 2 or 3x. Like many of the other videos show. I need to try a multi directional scan tool next. I don't have 1 though.
@@d.j.9961 I just checked service info for the '00, and it is the same procedure, you DO need a high level scan tool. I believe the difference is it uses a different key fob than the '01 to '05
The module is called the "Remote Control Door Lock Receiver." I found one at my local salvage yard. ebay only has 1 that I know of. These are becoming hard to find!

What us the name of the yellow colored module in the trunk of the Buick LeSabre that controls the key fobs? Where can one be obtained?
