That's good to know, can you tell us the procedure for changing the battery? Or was it something else you did that disabled the remote start?

The re-programming should only be the one i mentioned earlier, the door open and turning the ignition on and off quickly x times.

That's just coincidence, when changing the battery you won't even lose radio presets, you sure aren't going to have to reprogram any keys.

No, Yes.

The mechanic tried it to. But had to hook it up to a machine which read "disabled". He then proceeded to hit a button the "abled"? It? Lol

It doesn't matter what battery, it's still not going to change the programming in the computer on board that reads it.

​​​​Ok...not sure then...both keys failed at the same time and remote start was disabled. Past that it's a bit of a mystery
