Hi @mrroche1992 ,
Can you open the power door locks with the key?
If not have you checked that the new battery in the fob was put in the correct way or is OK?

Hi @mrroche1992 ,
Hopefully you didn't lose the little black transponder chip out of the key fob when you replaced the battery .
The chip doesn't get powered by the fob battery. It receives its power (when it is inserted into the ignition), from the immobilizer unit which sends a pulse signal that powers the chip
