I replaced my keyless entry remote battery because my message board on the dash said the battery was low. Now I can't get the message to go away. Any suggestions?

Check inside the remote case...there's instructions printed that tell you to hold the lock and unlock buttons for 7 seconds to reset the remote. I'm in the middle of replacing batteries myself. Let me know if it works.

Both my remotes no longer work. I will be ordering new ones off Ebay and having my dealer program them. New ones from Buick are very pricey.

Transmitter ProgrammingImportant:
All transmitters which are to be recognized by the remote control door
lock receiver (RCDLR) must be programmed in a single programming
sequence. If the system is placed in program mode it will erase all
previously programmed transmitters upon the receipt of the programming
signal from the first transmitter. Up to 4 transmitters can be
programmed. Do not operate or program the transmitters in the vicinity
of other vehicles that are in the keyless entry program mode. This
prevents the programming of the transmitters to the incorrect vehicle.
Good luck
