    I have the keyless wireless option and one of my key fobs stopped working so I put a new battery in. So now instead of blinking once in the upper right-hand corner when I push the button and working properly instead the little red button in the corner links three times and nothing else happens :-(
    any thoughts that will save me from having to spend a fortune on a new key? I even switched batteries from the one that still works to the one that does not work in case I got a bad new battery but no changes on either key.
    Thank you for the help

    could any of the buttons be stuck in?

    Does the remote function work on the fob? If so, use that a few times and see if the problem clears up.
