It doesn't matter what fob number you get. It has to be programmed for your car. It's suggested that you use the long programming procedure so you can program the fob as #1 and it will also cancel the programming of the lost fob so no one can use it to steal your car.
Oh, sorry, I see you edited your post. The battery for a fob is 2032, don't remember the 2 characters in the front of that.
Sorry, I should have also asked whether you still had another fob or not. You really need to reprogram the old one and the new one.

Thanks for the response. FOB #2 lost. I still have #1, hopefully, when I get home it will work. Sounds like a trip to the dealer. 
Ps its CR 2032 I believe.

Okay, the programming procedure which has been posted here before has 2 different processes. The short one just adds a new fob as the next fob number. In your case, it will automatically program the new fob as #3. That means that fob will not have access to the OPTIONS, but will start the car, lock/unlock doors, etc.. It also leaves the lost fob programmed for the car and anyone who finds it could enter and/or steal your car.
The long process in that procedure starts the fob numbers over again with fob #1, then fob #2. It also deletes the programming for that lost fob so it can no longer access your car. It also gives both of your fobs access to the car OPTIONS.

I bought my GS with only 1 fob. So ended up buying another fob with a blank key for $100 on "big auction site". I've seen the post about the reprogram procedure, but chose to do what's in the manual, which looked a little different. Maybe it was just worded differently and it was my visualizing that made it seem different. Either way, it's easy and good to know that nobody else has a key that can be used on my car.
