Do you have to reset everything when you change the battery?

what exactly doesn't work, just the lock and unlock?

when pressing button on key, simply NOTHING happens - lights on mirror dont flash either. doors no longer lock or unlock. it's weird - have changed the batteries in these before and was all good. ugh.

Stick the key in the passenger side door and turn, the key needs to be 'reprogrammed'.

Happened to me once.

did you try sticking the key into the passenger side door or trunk?
