PLEASE HELP! Key fob does not work!!!
Hello everyone,
A couple of days ago I noticed the fact that my key fob would not open my door. I figured it was a battery issue...
Today I replaced the battery and I still have no luck. I referred to the owners manual and tried to "re-sync" it as well as "re-match" it with the DIC but it still does not work. I don't get anything! Can someone please offer me some advice. I don't know what else to try. All comments are greatly appreciated!

key fob problems
Stupid question. 
i find that alot of people have the battery in backwards. just double check.
Also...
take the cover off and check to make shure all the solders are good. I have fixed plenty of them. Do you know how to check your codes with the DIC? hold #4 and hit #1 4times. then hit #4 untill the display says RFA (i think thats the one) its the last one on the list anyway. if there is any just clear them and recheck it. Next is to borrow sombodys and reconfig that one to your car. then just redo it back to there car. no big deal. If that aint it the only other thing it could be is the module. I have only replaced one of them in the 9 years i have been a C5 tech.
Good luck.
