Reprogram the keys again then as soon as you have done it & Lexia tells you to sync the remotes the way i find works best is to switch the ignition on rapidly alternate between pressing the lock & unlock buttons for 10 seconds, after 10 seconds repeat with the second remote. Get out the car & lock the car with the keyblade, wait 30 seconds then unlock with key, open & close the door & try remote. I find this method gets me the best results.
