a quick google search landed me these (no promises):

1)
With the driver door closed, hold down the power unlock button on the door panel.
Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
Release the power unlock button on the door panel. The remote control door lock receiver will respond in the following manner in order to indicate that the receiver is in the programming mode:
Locking the doors
Unlocking the doors

Important
All extra transmitters must be programmed at this time. When a new transmitter is programmed, it will deactivate the old transmitters.


Hold down the lock and unlock buttons on the transmitter until the remote control door lock receiver will respond in the following manner:
Locking the doors.
Unlocking the doors.
Repeat step 7 for each additional transmitter.
Turn the ignition switch to the ON position in order to exit the transmitter programming mode.

2) Transmitter Programming
Ground pin 4 to pin 8 of the data link connector (DLC). The receiver will respond as follows:
The doors will lock and unlock within 2 seconds.
The liftgate window release (E54) will be activated within 2 seconds.
Simultaneously press and hold the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons on one of the transmitters until the locks cycle. This will take approximately 10 seconds. The receiver will respond as follows:
The doors will lock and unlock within 2 seconds.
The liftgate window release (E54) will be activated within 2 seconds.
Do not wait more then 60 seconds between transmitters or the receiver will exit the programming mode.
Repeat step 2 for each transmitter, four transmitter can be programed to this vehicle.
Remove the jumper wire from the DLC.
Verify that the RKE is functioning correctly:
Lock and unlock the doors.
Activate the liftgate window (E54).
