@@mariodorder322 no the new fob won't give you remote start. His does because he installed a remote start kit wich plugs into the computer he has a video on this. None of the stock full size GM trucks from 99 to 07 had remote start it was introduced in late 07 with the new body style.
Thanks for the discount code Matt! Got my new 2020 fob in and it works great! For those having issues programming in 99-07 truck/SUV, there are actually 2 ways to enter programming mode. In some vehicles, turning ignition on/off/on/off will result in locks cycling, but the truck wont actually program any fobs. You need to turn ignition from Run/Accessory/Run/Accessory. Locks will cycle, hold both buttons on fob down for 15 seconds, locks will cycle again. Turn ignition to Run, then off, truck will chirp to exit programming mode. This was done in my 2003 Silverado 2500HD.
@@Tia_kittygrrr do you use the factory fob or an aftermarket fob that came with the remote start kit? If it's factory fob, then the remote start kit is just looking for a lock pattern (usually either lock>unlock>lock like Matt's Tahoe, or lock x 3) and you can use any fob that will transmit to your Escalade, like these new style ones from Boost Auto. If this is the case, I highly suggest the 2020 style fob. I absolutely love it compared to the junky factory fobs our vehicles came with.
I have the first boost auto fob. After 7 months the chrome came off. I just bought some cheap eBay cases for the newer fob and swapped the chrome sides. That’s my only beef with it honestly. I like the 2020 style but $65 is too salty. I’ll wait for a sale.
This video made me order one and I love it!! Price is a drop in the bucket to the small stuff that makes me love my truck. Small quality stuff like this makes your older vehicle feel not so old.
@@mariahpotter2848 you don't, because that's not a later model. gmt800's still route starter relay power through the ignition, the "old school" way. Only tip-to-start or push-to-start vehicles have remote start capabilities from the factory, since the ECU sends a signal to the starter relay, not your ignition. Matt has an aftermarket kit installed in his Tahoe. You can find plug-n-play kits for 03+ online that just make you press the lock/unlock buttons in whatever pattern they chose.
Yup I care, my stupid upgrade will be here tomorrow. Got the 2015 fob for my rust free 2002 Silverado 2500 HD from your first fob upgrade video. Price plus Pa. Sales tax was $51.98 from Boost Auto Parts….wish I would have been aware of the newer fob.
Thanks for this video. I ordered the fob for my 2007 Silverado. It works great. I used your code to purchase. I left them a 5 star review but I did mention that they needed to give instructions with the fob. I had to come back to your vid to learn how to program it. Which is not a problem. Thanks again.
I want your Yukon. Mine is my only vehicle without a sunroof. We don't use ours enough to invest in the newer fobs (bought to pull a travel trailer) but my pleasure is in showing my wife that I can do some electronic things competently. I followed your instructions and it work like electronic magic..
I love this little upgrade idea! however i may be selling my 03 suburban some kid t boned me and was not insured. i got the truck nice and fixed up for cheap but the door they iinstalled just doesnt sit right and my wife wants a fuel efficient suv so i may be parting ways with my baby. I'll always stay subscribed so i can reminisce on when i had mine.
Hey Matt! Thanks for the awesome content, as always. I was wondering if you’ve noticed any difference in the distance you can lock/unlock at compared to stock. I don’t get a lot of distance with the stock fob, and I’d be gung ho for this upgrade if it added a few feet. Thanks again!
I asked my dealer about buying a new original fob. They wanted almost $500 for it including programming to the car. That´s a lot for that little plastic thing... I´m in Europe so it´s probably cheaper in the US but $64 sounds really good :)
Hey I know this is a GM video , but I was curious does this work if you wanted to upgrade a Chevy key fob from 2017 to 2022? And where would I go about that?
Anyone know if there is an upgraded replacement for a 2005 Silverado steering wheel? The leather is worn and I'd like to replace it. Most of the rest of the truck is in great shape. Thanks!
I just purchased a 2009 Chevy Silverado LTZ and would love to upgrade from the fisher price fob. I'm curious if upgrading to the 2015 or 2020 models from Boost will increase my remote start range - or are these fobs a cosmetic upgrade only? Sorry if this has already been asked, I went through the comments and did not see this information but saw several people asking about this. Kenny
Stumbled upon the new T/A merch when I was ordering a couple hats and stickers last, you gotta show off the merch at the end of the video or something so people order them
Hi Matt, ive been going through your Trans Am build and I am putting my 83 back on the road after a long hibernation. I'm reisntating the air con as the pump had been removed but the bracketry for the pump is missing. Would your old 350 engine still have the compressor brackets and if so would you be willing to sell and ship them? I dont seem to be able to find the standard drivers side compressor bracketry anywhere. Thank you in advance
@@lsxmatt That would be fantastic. Thank you. I think its just the top curved bracket and the horse shoe piece that bolts to the front of the compressor.
What is better about this key fob, other than the fact that it's fancy and beefier...?.. does the proximity work more, I find that my old key fob sucks and I can only lock or unlock the car from like 10 ft away, otherwise it just doesn't work
The key of a 2010 silverdo has to be programing or just go to lock smith an make a copy because i had an 2003 cadillac escalade and just made copy and i didnt had to do anything just like a regular key copy
The gray area in this vid is real.. when you say full sized SUVs and trucks 99-19+ are you saying 99+ NBS or 99+ OBS/NBS? Asking because my suburban is a 99 GMC OBS but it indeed has that old round blob fob.
I got a Chevrolet Tahoe LT from 2000, and when i messaged them about which fob to choose they simply told me that the VIN for my car told them the fob wouldn't work, but that doesn't make any sense, their fobs are literally made for these vehicles. Anyone faced the same issue? I think the reason was that my current fob doesn't have an FCC ID on the back for some reason.
I've been saying for ten years that someone should have come out with a newer looking style fob for older cars / trucks. Didn't realize someone had done it... Fkn A I didn't catch it if you mentioned, but... do these one's have any better of a transmit radio in them? Any better range?
Just ordered mine and am curious to find out as well. But I definitely think its worth it even if its the same range because of the nicer feeling buttons.
Does the vehicle have to have remote start built in previously in order for it to work without having the button on the remote? Or does the remote “automatically activate “ it , cause I have the same ole fisher price remote with just lock, unlock and panic like yours did
What he neglected to mention is that you will need to purchase a programmer if you own a vehicle such as a 2013 Yukon or you won’t be able to program the fob to your vehicle. I understand most newer vehicles don’t require the use of a programmer so it’s a good idea to determine if your vehicle requires one.
I have a 2008 Chevy Tahoe PPV. I bought the newer 2020 Boost Auto fob. For some reason, I can not get it to program. After holding down the unlock button on the door and turning the ignition twice, it won't do the unlock cycle throughout my vehicle. What do I do?
OK so I just watched most of your video.... And I noticed you pressed Lock unlock lock.... For the remote start..... My 2011 Silverado factory key fob... Is that a feature I didn't know about.... Lock unlock remote start ????
Purchased the 2015 one for my 03 gmc Sierra 1500 and can’t get it programmed to my truck, following your instructions to a t and can’t seem to get it to work. Any suggestions?
My only thing is when programming th key fob do I have to do it the way you did? Because on my Escalade it has a menu selection for me to relearn my key fobs
how well does these fobs work/hold up overtime? I have a 05 tahoe and I bought some fobs off of amazon and after 2 weeks the fobs stopped working with my tahoe, old fob still worked fine. I read online that 3rd party fobs are a hit or miss if they will work long term.
I’ll get there eventually. I’m just lacking motivation as I feel like I’m doing the same thing over after building my Camaro. I’m hoping fall/winter will be my time to knock it out.
I have had issues with trying to program any key fob on my 2010 Chevy Silverado Lt. I’ve even taken it to a locksmith and a dealership who couldn’t program it. It appears I have a problem with the truck itself. Does anyone have any suggestions on fixing the problem.
My 2015 Canyon fob faded after a year of light use. I bought the truck new (ordered it from the factory) and only have 30K miles on it 7 years later. They are just poorly printed with low grade ink. GM is getting better, but still cheap.
Side note, I commented just before where you showed the remote start working😐 but it is a cool product and I’ll most likely pick one up and toss the old junk key fob
It’s gives me three options when purchasing I wasn’t sure witch one to buy I wasn’t sure witch fcc id mine was it is a 2004 so I just went with a 2003 thru 2007 option hopefully it works

Does the new key fob have increased range, compared to the other 2?

Aftermarket kit that's wired into the truck. The truck has no way from the factory to start the engine without use of the ignition.

You cannot program a full size GM truck from 2011 to 2013 yourself. Only a dealer can do it.
You may want to let people know that.
Can you call it an upgrade if does the exact same thing as the original fob. It's newer, fresher looking, but I don't see how the word upgrade fits
I like the thin and sleek Fisher Price key fob better. I have a 2018 Sierra and hate the newer larger and boxy fobs.

How did you get your remote start setup like that?
Sadly the code seems to have now expired.. I still appreciate the video as I hadn't realized you had to program all your remotes at once like that.
Do these give you any more range from the stock fisher price ones??
If you want a Chevy or GMC logo on it buy a cosmetically intact non functioning newer one and swap the back with the one in this video.
LSXMATT doesn’t work.
Would have been nice to hear this before purchasing an Amazon fob. SMH.
I have a 2018 Sierra and I can’t get the locks to cycle holding down the unlock button
What remote start kit do you have?
Just ordered mine and used the 20% off code LSXMATT , thanks. Can’t wait to get it!👍
Let’s hope this works for gmt800 Escalade
It's cool looking, but no thanks. The small size/weight of the original is why I like it.
How do I know if my silverado 2500 cam with keyless entry
I normally put a silicon case from eBay or Amazon in my new key fobs, keeps them from getting all faded and beat up cosmetically.
Pretty cool though, I might upgrade from my fisher price 🤣
I had to do that for Cadillac key fobs that the rubberized coating fell off of. The cheap silicone covers look like new like 2+ years later.
Does upgrading the remote give you a keyless start option or do you need to already have keyless start installed ?
On the 2007+ GMT900/910, but it does require scan tool programming.
Your fob that has the pealed off chrome is probably not an oe body. Mine are actual metal.
What did you have to do to add remote start?

Try giving them a call if you haven’t already. They could probably help you more than me. I’m sure they know of any common programming issues.
so does this mean the smaller / older fobs can be used with the newer trucks as well?

So I have a prostart aftermarket car starter. Can I incorporate it into this for so 1 fob does it all?
