Default WARNING: Key Fob Battery change = Key Fob reprogram

Battery change in key fob (XR5 version) has resulted in total loss of programming in key fob. Unable to lock car with either key fob or door buttons.

Still starts OK when key fob inside car.

Dealer says BOTH key fobs need to be reprogrammed by plugging the car/fobs into their computer (ETIS?). Both because they are on a paired frequency arrangement thingy. Do 1 only and the other stops working. Marvellous....

Dealer says this happens 'sometimes'....&*^#$&*#^$ technology.
