GRAND PRIX KEY FOB PROGRAMMING INSTRUCTIONS 
Important 
Once the Keyless entry receiver enters the programming/diagnostic mode, the programming of the first transmitter erases all previous transmitter programming information. You must then program all of the transmitters.

Program only 1 vehicle remote control door lock receiver at a time. If you program multiple receivers simultaneously, the same transmitter could possibly be programmed to more than 1 remote control door lock receiver. 

Perform the following steps:
Sit in the vehicle driver's seat. (actually it’s much eazy er from the front pass seat) 
Remove the ignition key from the ignition lock cylinder. 
Close all of the vehicle's doors. 
Remove the MALL PGM fuse from the fuse panel. Refer to Electronic Diagnosis in Body and Chassis. 
Turn the ignition lock cylinder to the ACC position. 
Turn the ignition lock cylinder OFF, then back to ACC within 1 second. 
Open and then close any vehicle door. You will hear a chime when the remote control door lock receiver enters the programming/diagnostic mode. If you do not hear a chime, start again at step 1.

Important 
After 7 seconds, you may hear a chime confirming successful synchronization. After approximately 14 seconds, you will hear a chime confirming successful programming.

Press and hold the transmitter LOCK and UNLOCK buttons simultaneously for 14 seconds. 
Repeat step 8 in order to program each additional transmitter. 
Remove the ignition key from the ignition lock cylinder. 
Install the MALL PGM fuse back into the fuse panel. Refer to Electrical Diagnosis in Body and Chassis. 
Validate that all the transmitters that were programmed operate properly. Refer to Keyless Entry System Operation.

Good luck and hope this helps.

Lock/unlock doors

Does the second remote work?  Have you changed the battery and then done any reset required by the manual?  Ten year old batteries are probably shot.
