It seems as though there have been alot of posts on programming keyless entry fobs, so I thought it might be useful to put this info in one place. Maybe it can be posted in the DIY section for future reference. Here's what I have found so far, and I personally confirmed the 95 programming on my Blazer as being correct. The 95s, at least the 2 I've tested, cannot be programmed using older ground G pin instructions or the newer ON, OFF, ON, OFF instructions. I'm not sure about what other years use this little red connector. I have included a pic of it. Well here's what I have found.

To determine if your Blazer has RKE (remote keyless entry) installed, check in the glove box sticker for the proper RPO code (AU0 - A, U, Zero). If you have AU0 on the RPO code list, then your truck is equipped with it.

The RKE module is located on the hush panel above the DLC (diagnostic link connector).

Even if your truck doesn't have an RKE unit, if the wiring is present you can install an appropriate RKE module (check a junk yard) then program a fob for it as described below.

You can purchase additional fobs from a dealer ($$), or online from web outfits ($20 - 30) or on ebay ($15 - 20). You MUST get the correct fob type (check the P/N and MODEL/FCC ID) for your RKE. Used ones will sometimes need the batteries changed.

Jumpering means to bridge the connection

When you do the programming, you are assigning the fob transmitter to the RKE, not the other way around. This is why you have to program each fob you want to work every time.

I didn't check, but does disconnecting your battery erase the RKE's programming. Swartlkk said he took it to the dealer to the get some programming done as an excuse, but does someone know if it does actually? I'm too lazy to check.

19?? - 1994

*Programming erases all previously programmed fob transmitters

Locate the Dignostic Link Connector, DLC, under the driver’s side of the dash. This is the connector that an OBD scanner would be plugged in to
Locate Pin connector “G”, which will be the lower left pin connector (the side of the connector shows the letter assigned to each pin too)
Jumper pin connector “G” to a suitable ground (a wire attached to a paper clip will work)
The doors and hatch will lock then unlock to confirm the RKE module has entered programming mode

Press any button on a fob transmitter one time
The doors and hatch will lock then unlock to confirm fob programming
To program additional fobs, press any button on each until confirmation
Remove the jumpering from the connector to exit programming mode
Test each fob to confirm programming

1995

fob info:
P/N: 15955702
DOC/MDC: 218 K1035
MODEL/FCC ID: ABO 0104T

*Programming erases all previously programmed fob transmitters

Remove 3 screws and 1 nut that hold the hush panel on which the OBD DLC connector sits (on the drivers side)
Find the RED two wired programming connector located along the 2 thick wires running from the RKE box (it might be taped to them)

Jumper the programming connector terminals (use a screwdriver tip)
The doors and hatch will lock then unlock to confirm the RKE module has entered programming mode

Press any button on a fob transmitter one time
The doors and hatch will lock then unlock to confirm fob programming
To program additional fobs, press any button on each until confirmation
Remove the jumpering from the pins to exit programming mode.
Test each fob to confirm programming.

1996 - 200?

*Programming erases all previously programmed fob transmitters

Close all the vehicle doors
