Default Alarm doesn't work

I just replaced the battery in my key FOB thinking the alarm wasn't working because the battery was dead.

Any way I can diagnose the problem myself?

Thanks for any help

Did you try to resync the remote by standing beside the car on the driverside and pressing the two top buttons on the remote until you hear the horn beep?

If you looked inside the remote when you changer the batt it says.Reprogram fob after batt change or somthing like that.Go into your dic and hit options. go through all the options till its blank.
Hit and hold reset for 5 seconds.It will say somthing about the learn feature.Let of the reset button and hit it once more.It will tell you to press lock and unlock on your #1 fob.Hold the lock and unlock for 15 seconds then it will say to do #2.
