Security System & Immobilizer

GM security moved from VATS resistor keys through PassLock to PK3/PK3+ transponders, the ID46 “Circle+” era, and today’s proximity fobs.

On the Bolt specifically we see: Hitag2 Extended / ID46E / NXP PCF7952E, PCF7937E. A correctly cut but unprogrammed key turns the locks and never starts the engine — programming is the half of the job that matters.
