Possible to add keyless entry to WT?


Recommended Posts

Posted

but adding 4 wires , and a small module isn't a hard work if you find someone to reprogram your bcm and key fob

I talked to Mac Haik Chevrolet in Houston (sem-local for me) and they said they can do it for $150 with GM parts. I'll report after I have it done.

Wow that's cheap. I paid them $350 a year ago to do my remote start

I'm not getting remote start and only one remote. NitroDasik, I called them based on your experience with them. My local dealer said it's not possible. We shall see.

After reading all the threads, here and online, i purchased a set of FOBs [49.00 on ebay] and went to the dealer. I was expecting a fast turn away, but ah , not so fast. after scanning the vehicle it was determined i didnt have the proper parts to install the key fobs. BUT he went and checked another option. Start by checking the hood latch , with the key turned on, pull the hood latch release, look for a light on the dash showing you the hood is unlatched, if you have this option, they CAN program remotes. if not, you will have to buy the kits from GM, it comes with new hood latch, a pair of FOBs and the most of all GM CODE to program the door locks and remote start. List price is 370.00 but cost was 275 plus tax. installed 298. out the door. I now have keyless remote, remote start, and down window options. in 2007 the WT could not be programmed at Chevrolet, they have wised up and allowed this to be done on even the barest boned WT with electric lock and window. I hope this helps 2016 wt 2500hd 4x4 6.0 gas auto transmission

I’m curious how people have made out. I’m looking to add the keyless entry as well to my wt 2500hd. It’d be nice to have the buttons for the doors.

    • I don't wanna do major surgery/upgrades, behind-the-dash work, add amps, change radio etc. on my '26 std cab WT. On the WT, it has the base 7" IOR infotainment setup, and only two speakers (doors). Since I listen to classical, looked around for speakers that do well and dug thru reviews. Two-way speakers were found to be better than 3-way. So I've ordered a pair of  Infinity Reference REF-9632IX 2 way speakers.  [These may  or may not have been discontinued / succeeded by the 3-way ...9633 ones.]    These speakers are lauded for 3 ohm and 94db sensitivity spec so they'll work well for ordinary base car radios without amps and offer better performance (quality,  strength) than  default base paper-cone speakers. They'll be installed in a few days and I'll let y'all know what I think. Bill W San Jose      
    • Thanks!   Changed out the rear shocks today to Bilstein 5100s.  So far feel much better. The stock Rancho were wore out.  Lots of heavy hauling (2 moves, home renovations, etc).  Next up is new BFG tires Monday.  Cant wait the current tires have little to no wet traction and are super loud (hum)    
    • Ok, I got the all the codes. What do you all think would be a place to start?
    • How about I just point to the factory pans stand pipe little drain plug and claim its a pan with a real drain plug !. I just couldn't swallow the fact that a Dorman pan which at this point is probably the only pan out there that fits the gas version truck cost that much up here in Canada so I decided initially anyway to skip it and see what I thought of pulling the pan method and down the road if I felt inclined enough then I would either install a drain plug kit in the factory pan if there is enough room for it, or have a bung welded onto it, or put an aftermarket pan on. The thing is if the pan is not pulled then the magnets in the pan can't be inspected and cleaned or if wanting to change out the filter. However of course it certainly would make the job easier to be able to drop the oil first before having to handle the pan if dropping the pan that go around was the goal.    I knew a guy locally that was doing custom field spraying years ago with a pickup pulling a ground driven sprayer, I believe it was a GM pickup with an automatic trans. He had a drain plug in his pan and would drop the oil out of it once a week and top it back up through the dipstick tube to keep refreshing a portion of the oil often and that made the transmission last far longer than had he done nothing. Soft fields pulling 500 gallons of water at the start of each mixed up sprayer tank batch and in low range sucking along. I imagine he got some tips from other custom sprayer outfits doing the same thing at the time and learning from their blown up tranny mistakes. Transmissions then had no lock up converter so would cook the crap out of the fluid slipping that much and it would not have been synthetic fluid either.
