This bulletin is being revised to update step 2 to indicate that in the GM CC&A Parts System, entering any characters in the "Comments" field other
then the requested key code will cause the order to self cancel. Please discard Corporate Bulletin Number 09-00-89-029I (Section 00 - General
Information).
Due to the uniqueness of the ignition/door lock key, special equipment is required to cut a key. If you do not have the required equipment, you may
order a cut/coded key through GM CC&A.
To obtain a replacement key, the following procedure is suggested:
1. Obtain the vehicle key code.
U.S. Dealers: Access the "Key Code Look Up" application through GM GlobalConnect under the Parts Workbench.
Canadian Dealers: Access the "KeyCode Look-Up" feature within the OEConnection D2DLink application.
For additional information on obtaining GM key codes:
-(U.S. dealers) - refer to the latest version of GM Corporate Bulletin Number 10-00-89-009.
-(Canada dealers) - refer to the latest version of GM Corporate Bulletin Number 10-00-89-010.
2. Submit a part order through the GM CC&A Parts System for a key blank. Be sure to include the key code in the "note" field, and the keycode
in the "comments" field of the order. The "Comments" field may ONLY contain the keycode, (NO extra words). Additional verbiage will
result in the order canceling.
Notice
In the GM CC&A parts system, the "comments" field may only contain the requested keycode. Additional characters in this field WILL
CAUSE THE ORDER TO SELF CANCEL.
3. DO NOT ORDER AN UNCODED KEY AS YOU WILL RECEIVE A BLANK KEY THAT WILL REQUIRE CODING ON THE
SPECIAL EQUIPMENT LISTED BELOW.
Note
The key code is five digits. Some vehicle records do not have the first digit displayed (i.e., vehicle records show the key code as "1234"). When
ordering a cut/coded key, refer to the key code table.
