If you want a new one, you'll need to buy one from a 2000 as said, all 2000 and earlier are interchangeable except no passive feature on the 2000 fob. The problem will come if you buy a used fob, you'll pay a lot and probably end up with one with the same problem that seems to befall the earlier fobs.

I tried that nothing. The dealer tested my remote and said it was bad.If the car battery is disconnected for a long time will that erase the remote ?

If you take batteries out of fob you have to reprogram through DIC. If you disconnect car battery, you can resync fobs by pushing the lock and unlock at same time till horn beeps. I never had the car battery out for long period of time. Only have disconnected it a few times to work on things.
