keyless start issues

You should see your Chevrolet dealer for this issue. The keyless system more 7 ant antenna around the car have the dealer scan using GDS2

I understand the part about going to the dealer, and getting it scanned, but everything else is greek to me.

Weird. Low battery maybe? Does it happen with both keys?

Just mine so far, my wife has only driven the car with her key a handful of times, with no issues.

Do you have any aftermarket devices plugged into the car, such as a dashcam? I'm wondering if something could be interfering with the signal, like it would interfere with the tpms signal on the Gen1.

cheap dash cam and garmin gps, though the first time it happened, I had neither. I got those for Christmas, and it happened before then.

Switch keys with your wife to see if that fixes it.

If the problem returns, ounds like a trip to the dealer is warranted. Remove your dash cam when you drop it off just so you don't delay any diagnoses.

If that happens again, put the fob in the front cup holder.

I have been having this issue since day one I bought my car, ill drive in my car no madd3er what this distance, go to shut it off, ill get the message when I shut the car off that no key detected press clutch to restart. When this happens I cant use ANY of my keys to lock or unlock the car. the dealer has done nothing about this because every time they cant "replicate" the issue. but yet I have to deal with my car being a lemon from time to time. its just a madder of time before I get stuck when I need it

Take a photo of the message. Maybe take a video of the problem. It may not help the dealer, but it's proof there's a problem that needs fixing.

I'm not sure about the Gen 2, but the Gen 1 used the same receiver for the TPMS. Is that working OK? The Gen 1 had the receiver mounted near the inside rearview mirror. Do you have any electronics mounted in that area? Like a radar detector or a dash cam? That can mess up reception.

In my case, I am not having any issues with the TPMS

When this happened in mine, a new battery in remote cured the problem.

I have beadwork & my college parking pass ( ISNT a rfid or anything just a paper with a number on it ) hanging from my window, im gonna take the beadwork down but I doubt that's the issue. the TPMS system works fine.

I was in a situation where it happened when I was pulling into my house, this was last night tbh, so I was able to grab the other key fob and pinpoint that the fob isn't the issue but the receiver itself, this being said when I put the key in the middle cup holder ( where gm says to put it when it cant find the key ) it works but I still cant lock \ unlock my vehical with the fobs or the buttons on the car so if im locked out of that car that dose me no help if I gotta deal with the alarm to get in my car. Not fair to me if im trying to leave early in the morning and I get angry neighbor's because of my car alarm

I'd say either interference or a bad receiver.

I just cant see it being the beads but im gona take it down and see. I would be let down if it was, it just doesn't make sense it would be them if im even sitting in the car and the key fob will just stop working

When I talk about interference, it's anything that transmits a signal at or near that frequency. If it always tends to happen at home and nowhere else, then that suggests something in your home area is creating a noise that is causing the problem.

In my case, I was in two different locations, if it happens again, I will try to replace the battery

They're only about $2 in the CVS store.

What can they possibly doing when I get an oil change that causes my keyless start not to work? Do they have to disconnect something in order to do an oil change? This is the 2nd time after an oil change the keyless start will not work. Any ideas?
