Hello,

Here is the basic fob reprogramming procedure:

Complete the following steps in order to resynchronize the transmitter with the receiver:
Press the "lock" and the "unlock" buttons on the transmitter simultaneously for 7 seconds.
The receiver will acknowledge resynchronization in the following manner:
If all of the doors are locked, the receiver will unlock and lock all of the doors except the driver door.
If all of the doors are unlocked, the receiver will lock all of the doors.
