Default key fobs.

Hey guys...Our '99 coupe hasn't been driven much lately, during the cold weather. We took it out the other day, and of course the "low" tire pressure warnings were going off every time we drove it. We returned and corrected the tire pressure and now the key fobs, neither of them work. I know it takes the same receiver for bothe the tire pressure and the key fobs to work...is there a way of re-setting the unit? Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Stand fairly close to the car and press and hold down the lock and unlock button till the horn blows. Takes less than a minute.

Hold the lock and unlock down for about 10 to 15 seconds. I believe the horn honks or you get another obvious signal if you are successful. Whatever the signal is iit is obvious when it works.
If that fails look in the owners manual for the proceedure using the DIC to reprogram the fobs.
