GENERAL INFORMATION:

Different model radios use different buttons to set the codes into the radio. To determine which two buttons to use, determine if the radio has a seek button, a seek up/down button, or no seek button at all.

If the radio has a seek button, use seek and scan to set the codes as described below.

If the radio has a seek up/down button, use seek up/down and tune up/down to set the codes and substitute these buttons for seek and scan in the procedures below.

If the radio has no seek button, use tune down and tune up to set the codes and substitute these buttons for seek and scan in the procedures below.

Different model radios have different functions attached to the radio presets. Below is the present configuration of dual functions depending on the radio having a seek button, seek up/down or no seek button at all.

SEEK BUTTON: Presets 1 (PREV), 2 (NEXT), 3 (REV), 4 (FF), 5 (COMP) SEEK UP/DOWN: Presets 1 (PREV), 2 (NEXT), 3 (REV), 4 (FF), 5 (COMP) NO SEEK: Presets 1 (REV), 2 (FF), 3 (COMP), 4 (REPT) 5 (SRCH), 6 (SCAN)

RADIO DISPLAYS:

"LOC" Means the radio is locked and there is a customer code stored in the radio.

"InOP" Means too many wrong codes have been entered and the radio must be left powered up for 1 hour with battery and ignition applied before 3 more attempts can be made.

"SEC" Means there is a customer code stored but the radio is unlocked.

General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
