It should have Turned off with the Insert of the Newly Programmed Key. If Not, It may need a Computer Reset. You Can try Pulling the ECM Fuse for 5 Min. to Reset the Computer. If this does not work, Try disconnecting the Battery and Reconnecting. Make sure that you have a RadioCode before Disconnecting the Battery Though. Please Rate My Response! Thanks!

How to program a keyless fob for 2001 cadillac deville

Unfortunately, the website I found says there is no on-board method of programming your car for a new key-fob. You have to take the car to a dealer or to a key-maker (who may only charge half as much as the dealer)

How to program keyless entry remote 2001 cadillac deville. replacing both remotes

I have the correct answer for you, but it is probably not what you want to hear. A 2001 Cadillac Deville has NO self-programming procedures for remotes. You can add transponder keys if you have the master key, otherwise you need to go to a professional to get them programmed because they need special equipment to communicate with the vehicle.

I would suggest a locksmith before the dealer as they are usually more affordable. We always recommend an ALOA (Associated Locksmiths of America) member, as their code of ethics means they will treat you fair.

I also suggest avoiding the dealer for the actual key fob remotes for your Cadillac Deville. My company sells factory OEM key fob replacements at a steep discount. Check this link to find your vehicle key fob. https://keylessentryremotefob.com/

Ignition lock cylinder removal

Talking about pulling the air bag,removing the clock spring,
special tools for the lock plate,then it gets easy.

Disconnect the batt. for like 20 min to kill the air bag,remove the bag ,then the wheel,(with the puller you rented),the tool to remove the clip for the lock plate come next( also rented from Auto Zone or such like)
The tumbler is held in with a pin that unscrews ,then the cyl. just slides out.

How to unluck security system of cadilac devlle 2001..my key wont get in to the ignition

Hello: It sounds like the tumblers have come loose in the ignition lock cylinder. You will have to replace the lock cylinder and possibly the key. (if the key is badly worn it could have caused the lock cylinder to fail.) Then you will have to program the system. There is NOT a Way to by pass the pass-key 3 system. Or UNLOCK IT........

I can't get my key into my ignition

Good chance that the tumblers in the ignition cylinder has gone bad and the ignition switch needs to be replaced. Your going to have to call a lock smith that is familiar with the pass lock system for the GM products so you can have your cylinder and ignition keys programed to start the car, as the pass lock system is your anti theft engine immobilizer. Good luck and keep me posted, be glad to answer any questions.
