Default Remote key fobs have lost their memory.

I just replaced my Red Top battery now my remote key fobs quit working. I went and bought a new battery for my key fob but it made no difference. Nothing works, doors don't work, trunk release doesn't work, panic button doesn't work. I checked the settings and also checked for codes, I have none. Any ideas on how I can get the memory back. Thanks !

All you need to do is to re program the FOB. In the handbook there is a procedure. If memory serves all you do is turn on the ignition, clear all messages on DIC then go to the options button and scroll through to FOB learning. I believe all you do then is press lock and unlock at the same time. Done. I may have the location of the FOB learn menu is but the drivers manual will tell you. Good luck!

You are absolutely correct, Thank you for your quick response. I actually had looked in my manual but did not go far enough to see Fob Training. I found it and was able to program both fobs with no problem. I'm back in business. Thanks again and Merry Christmas !
