    Start the car up with it once and it should be fine.

    open the door by sticking the key in the hey hole. Turn the car on a drive for a little. That should reprogram the remote. TE REASON I say to drive a bit is because I tried to just turn the car on and off and the remote didnt reprogram that way.

    I couldn't open the door with the keyhole. I stuck the key in the hole and held down the unlock button for a few seconds and then was able to turn it. Then, like most of you had said, I started the car with the key and viola, situation is resolved. Thanks for the help.
