Having a strange issues with my key FOB and cannot find any answers. So I am reaching out to you guys. It started out a few months ago that both of my key FOBs would not work once and awhile. Now it has gotten to the point neither work at all. I have changed out the batteries and tried to reprogram them and followed the owners manuals directions. When I try to reprogram them the doors do not respond when i press any button on the key FOB.

So to me it is something wrong in the vehicle and not the FOB. Any suggestion?

Try the following

E1 RESYNCHRONIZE THE INOPERATIVE REMOTE TRANSMITTER
Key in OFF position.
Press any button on the inoperative remote transmitter four times consecutively within 30 seconds.
Does the remote transmitter operate correctly now?
Yes
The system is OK. CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.

No
GO to E2 .

E2 CHECK FOR A SECOND REMOTE TRANSMITTER
Check for another remote transmitter that operates with the vehicle.
Is there another remote transmitter that operates with the vehicle?
Yes
GO to E3 .

No
GO to E4 .

E3 RESYNCHRONIZE THE INOPERATIVE REMOTE TRANSMITTER USING THE SECOND REMOTE TRANSMITTER
Key in OFF position.
Press any button on the operational remote transmitter.
Within 30 seconds, press a button on the inoperative remote transmitter.
Check the inoperative remote transmitter for correct operation.
Does the inoperative remote transmitter operate now?
Yes
The system is OK. CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.

E4 PROGRAM THE INOPERATIVE REMOTE TRANSMITTER OR ALL THE REMOTE TRANSMITTERS
Reprogram the inoperative remote transmitter individually using a diagnostic tool or reprogram all remote transmitters using the manual key cycle method. REFER to Remote Transmitter Programming in this section.

The system is OK. INFORM the customer that any remote transmitters not present will need to be reprogrammed. CLEAR the DTCs. TEST the system for normal operation.

To diagnose the inoperative remote transmitter, Go To Pinpoint Test C .

No not yet, will do it once I get home from work. Once again thank you for the help. Not having the FOB work and having some ******** knock the key lock tumbler in on my door made it a drag. Hated using the key pad.

The key pad is nice to have that way you can lock the doors with the engine running and then use the keypad to re-open the door
