be too far from the vehicle.
.Check the location. Other vehicles or
objects may be blocking the signal. Your
body could also impact the signal. Hold
the smartphone in your hand, away from
your body, and toward the vehicle for
best results.
.Check that the smartphone is turned on
and has sufficient battery power.
.Check the connection. Your smartphone’s
bluetooth connection must be enabled.
.Check the myChevrolet app. Ensure that it
is open. Try relaunching the app if it is
open but is still not working.

Digital Key is only available with an OnStar
account associated with the vehicle. 1. Log in to your OnStar account in the MyChevrolet mobile app. 2. Select the Digital Key menu option, and
follow the steps on your screen to pair
your phone.

the location of the vehicle shown on the
back of the key card. It is highly recommended to carry a key
card as a back up to the Digital Key in case
the Digital Key battery is weak or there is
interference to the signal.

programmed to it.
