Answer
Dianne,

A CR2025 is the proper battery.  You should not have to reprogram the keyfob.  But, if you need to reprogram check out the following.


1. Close all doors
2. Insert key into and remove it from ignition key cylinder more then six times within 10 seconds. (Hazard warning lamps will then flash twice.)
Note: Withdraw key completely from ignition key cylinder each time.
If Procedure is performed too fast, system will not enter registration mode.
3. Insert key into ignition key cylinder and turn to ACC position
4. Push any button on key fob once. (Hazard warning lamps will then flash twice.)
5. Do you want to enter any additional key fob id codes?  If No - Go to  step 9 , if Yes - Go on to next step (6)
Note: A maximum five ID codes can be entered. If more then five ID codes are entered, the oldest ID code will be erased.
6. Unlock the door, then lock again with lock/unlock switch driver side (in power window main switch).
Note: Operate this procedure even if the door is in an unlock state.
7. Push any button on key fob once. (Hazard warning lamp will then flash twice.)
At this time, The oldest ID code is erased and the new ID code is entered.
8. For additional key fobs do steps 6 thru 7.
9. Open driver side door. (END)
