Check with dealer most keys now days are programmed to the car you may need to have the new key programmed to your car.

If it is a factory keyless system than you do need it done by the dealer, but if it is an after market system then reply back with manufacture and model.

You need to give us some information to go on, why are you having trouble. Is it that you are unclear about how to disconnect it or are you having trouble getting it out of engine compartment after it has been removed. The information system I have dosen't indicate the should be any diffuculty getting it off but they sometimes overstate the obvious and omit things that would be usefull.

need more info. why can't you get the alternator off?

Is it only clicking when you turn the key and you are not hearing the engine turn over?
If that is the case, it is either the starter, the starter solenoid, or the starter relay.... unless your battery or battery connections are bad.

An "old school" test....

Turn on the headlights and turn the key. If they dim out to nothing, either the battery is dead or the battery connections are bad.

If the engine cranks.....

A quick "old timers check"... Fuel, spark, air.....

Fuel- tank not empty, gas is getting to engine? (you need somebody who knows a little about cars to check this)

Spark- again, you need somebody who knows a little about cars- pull a spark plug wire and connect it to an old spark plug, allowing it to lay on a piece of metal. Crank the engine and see if it sparks... HIGH VOLTAGE!!!! DO NOT HOLD IT!!! IT WILL HURT ALLOT IF YOU DO!!!!

Air.... Is the air filter clogged? Hold it up to some light and if you cannot see light through it, it is bad.

The code should be on the glove box on the side when you turn the radio on it will say cade just punch in the number and the radio plays
