2008-2012 Cadillac SRX Keyless Entry Remote Tutorial

  
  
  
  
  
  

Press lock to lock all doors.  Press unlock once to unlock the driver's door.  Press twice to unlock all doors.  In the summer you may want to hold down the unlock button.  This will open the windows to allow the vehicle to cool off before you enter.

Press and hold the power liftgate button.  This will open or close the liftgate.

The panic button can be used to locate the vehicle by pressing once.  The lights will flash and the horn will chirp.  In an emergency you can sound the alarm by holding down the panic button for 2 seconds.  Press again to end the alarm.

To use remote start press the lock button then press and hold the remote start button.  If you want your climate controls to perform particular tasks (like heating the seats and blowing heat in the winter, or the opposite in the summer) set your climate control defaults in the vehicle personalization menu.  Instructions can be found in the owner's manual.

I lost one of my 2010 srx remotes. What can i do to stop that remote from working.

When the keyless entry remote programming procedure is performed, all learned remotes are dropped and any remotes that are programmed during the procedure will be the only ones that will work. The programming procedure is in the owner's manual. If you don't have an owner's manual you can obtain the instructions here: http://www.remotesandkeys.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=P158

I have a 2012 SRX and I started getting a "remote not detected" message" while driving. How can I fix this?

You can put the remote into the transmitter pocket located inside the console storage area or glovebox. It will probably be detected there. Regardless, you should change the remote's battery as soon as possible. This will most likely solve the problem. If changing the battery and putting it in the transmitter pocket doesn't solve the issue then you'll need to replace the remote.

My keyless remote for my 2008 SRX fell apart and I lost the "remote" part...so am using the key only for access to the vehicle. The other day (remember no keyless anything) I had the keys in my pocket, got out of the car without locking it, and somehow the car automatically locked!! Imagine my shock since I haven't been able to use any keyless locking for months. Can you explain this to me? 
 
Thanks.

There are two things I can think of right now that can cause that. 1. Before anwering I'd need to know if the vehicle is equipped with PROX entry. If your key slides into the bottom of the remote then the vehicle has PROX. If the key is separate from the remote then the vehicle does not have PROX. 
If the vehicle does not have prox then the vehicle customization menu must have become set to lock the doors when you leave. If the vehicle does have PROX there must be another working PROX remote somewhere in the vehicle.

I must not have PROX as my key is separate. I can't imagine that anything would be set to lock when I leave. I leave the keys in the ignition all the time. I've not pulled them out a lot and left them in the car, however, so am wondering about that action. I'm also wondering if the remote that fell apart is hiding somewhere in the car! Thanks!

I have the 2012 SRX and the range sucks on the remote. Is there anything you can do to expand it? You have to be within 10' of the vehicle to remote start which defeats the purpose.

Have you tried changing the batteries. These remotes are known for going through batteries very fast. Weak batteries are known to affect range. Also, do you have these problems all the time or just sometimes, maybe when you are near power lines and other sources of interference?

It's only 1 month old but I suppose the batteries in both remotes could be bad. Problem happens always. My office window is 20' from my car and it won't work.

I have a 2008 Cadillac SRX and the remote is not working I have changed the batteries several times, but the result that I always get is that the remote workes for like 2 min and then stops compleetly. can you please Advice on what to do? I also got the tire pressure light on and this also came on at the same time when the remot stopped working I am not sure if bothe problems are related or not?

We are hearing about a lot of troubles with these remotes. The problem may be the remote or it may be the system. You can order a new remote to try. If it has the same problem then you know it is the system. If the system is the issue I suggest getting an aftermarket system installed. Getting the dealer to replace the original system will be costly.
