SOURCE: Battery went dead replaced battery now key fob

First, look around the battery area and make sure you didn't forget to connect a wire (usually a red or black/ground); sometimes they manage to fall down near the frame or block and are not hard to miss when reconnecting wires; then, if all wires are connected, contact a representative at a local auto parts dealer and ask if it would be safe to unplug the computer and reconnect it. This should be okay, as long as the engine is off. Then, start the van and see if the fob works (if inside of van is accessible).

Please let me know if you need further assistance,

SOURCE: battery in key fob went

hi you can do this but you will have to have a key that does not have a remote/fob on it ( basically just go get one cut cheaply ) then to reprogram keys/key fob's first using the key without fob, turn ignition on ( do not turn over, just to position 2) then lock drivers door with other key ( do not use fob, just the key itself with fob now complete the following within 30 seconds within 5 seconds( of locking the car) press the unlock button on the first key once ( this programs that key as key memory1) the indicators should flash once to indicate signal received wait 5 seconds then press unlock on key fob vehicle should then unlock meaning key fob has been programmed and programming ended open door turn ignition off , and that's it, it should work if you have more than 1 key with fob, do the same as above but instead of pressing unlock once, you do it twice, if third key 3 x if fourth key 4 x etc etc,

I have a 2000 Ford Taurus and neither the "actual" key nor the key fob work... I have replaced the key fob battery and now cannot get back in my car ... help

You need to have a mobile lock smith check it out , before changing the key fob battery did it unlock the vehicle ? Your actual key doesn't unlock the doors? Replacing the fob battery has nothing to do with it,it doesn't lose it's unique RF signal . you need a lock smith or depending where you at, tow truck drivers have the tools to open the vehicle,

How to reprogram key fob after jump starting dead battery.

what you are missing is that the key fob relates to the immobiliser that has a corrupt program from the dead battery. The keys will be ok so use a scanner to reset the immobiliser in the cpu program. Just reset the ecm and the immobiliser will reset

Electronic key won't work after dead battery??? battery went dead and when recharged the electronic keys won't open the doors anymore?

If you have the Vehicle Owners Manual it will instruct you how to reset the Electronic Remote(s) as disconnecting the Battery or a totally discharged battery removes all power from the On Board Chassis Computers memory. Therefore you must reset the Remote(s) so that the On Board Chassis Computer can recognize them. If in Doubt, please consult your Chevrolet Dealer to rectify the problem.

98 celica battery went dead replaced now it want crank

Try this: Unhook the battery. Reconnect the battery. When the horn starts to beep, cycle the ignition key in the ignition on-off 5 times. This resets the alarm; the cycling of the key. Please advise me if this works for you.
