Default Need help programming remotes for 2000 Caravan

I have a 2000 Caravan with two broken remotes, I bought two new remotes and need to know how to program them. The two old remotes had to be thrown out because the were crushed and shattered. I have no usable remotes right now.

for you to be able to program the remotes yourself, you would need to have one operational remote. Since you have none, you will need to have them programmed at the dealer or by someone with access to a scan tool that will proform body functions.

What is the process if you have a working remote?

  1. Using a functional key fob transmitter, unlock the vehicle and disarm the Vehicle Theft Security System.
  2. Insert ignition key into the ignition switch.
  3. Turn the ignition switch to RUN position without starting engine.
  4. Using a functional key fob transmitter, press and hold the UNLOCK button for a minimum four seconds (maximum ten seconds)
  5. While holding UNLOCK button, and before ten seconds passes, press and release the PANIC button. A single chime will sound to verify that the RKE module is set to receive the new Vehicle Access Code(s)
  6. Within 30 seconds of the chime, press and release the "LOCK" and "UNLOCK" buttons on the transmitter at the same time. Then press any one of the buttons. The BCM will sound an abbreviated chime to acknowledge that the programming of the transmitter has been completed and was successful.
  7. Repeat step 6 for all transmitters that will be used with this vehicle (up to 4 total)
  8. Programming mode will last for 30 seconds. To get out of programming mode sooner, turn the ignition OFF. A single chime will sound to verify that the RKE module will no longer accept additional Vehicle Access Code(s)
  9. When Vehicle Access Codes(s) programming is complete, turn the ignition switch to the OFF position and verify RKE system operation using each key fob
