    Just bought a 2004 for my dad. It came with only one key fob and the buttons don't work. The car starts and runs when it's inserted but the smart key system doesn't work. Is it possible to program or reset the key I have? Or do I need another key?

    Can you clarify some things for me?
    1. When you push the buttons on the key fob, it does not lock or unlock the car, is that correct?
    2. Have you checked the battery in the key fob, when you push lock or unlock, does a red light flash next to the lock button on the key fob?
    3. Does it have the little black buttons on the driver side, passenger side, and hatchback door handle?
