This may or may not apply to you but please try testing the battery and connections first. You will need a multimeter. Set it to DC voltage and test the battery. Then slide the battery into the remote and test the battery again. Does it have the same voltage? If so, now test both contacts that make contact with both ends of the battery. Do you get the same voltage? Sometimes there is a coating on batteries that needs to be removed first or debris on the contacts that prevent good contact. If the remote still fails to operate please write back and we can try something else.
Good Luck.

SOURCE: keyless remote does not work after replacing batteries

I had the same problem and located the addendum to the owners manual. It's kind of overcomplicated it seems. Here is what it says:
1) Confirm all doors are closed and the key is out of the ignition.
2) Open the driver's door and put the key in the ignition within 10 seconds.
3) Remove the key within 10 seconds.
4) Push and release the driver's door switch 3 times within 20 seconds.
5) Insert the ingition key within 10 seconds.
6) remove the ignition key within 10 seconds
7) press and hold both "lock" and "unlock" on the transmitter for more than 5 seconds within 20 seconds of removing the key All doors will lock/unlock to confirm the process has been properly done.
8) Press "lock" or "unlock" on the transmitter within 5 seconds of completing step 7. All the doors will lock/unlock to confirm that the process was properly done.
At this point the transmitter has been properly programmed.

Of course, this didn't help me. My transmitter still does not work. I did confirm the procedure with a known good transmitter, so it is valid. If the lock/unlock does not happen in step 7, you more than likely have a bad transmitter.

SOURCE: 08 dodge ram key FOB reprogramming

ATTENTION: You MUST HAVE one working remote to add one more to the system. If you do not have one working remote right now then these instructions will not work. You will have to have a Locksmith or dealership use a computer to program the first remote for you.

Click here to find a Locksmith in your area to program this remote.
1. Enter your vehicle and close all doors.

2. Fasten your seat belt ( fastening the seat belt will cancel any chiming that may
confuse you during this programming procedure.)

3. Place key into the ignition.

4. Turn the ignition to the ON position ( DO NOT START THE ENGINE )

5. Press and hold the UNLOCK button on a working remote.


6. Continue to hold the UNLOCK button, wait at least 4 seconds, but no longer than
10 seconds, then press and hold PANIC button.

7. When a single chime is heard, release both buttons. The chime indicates the system
is in program mode.

8. Press and release both the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons, simultaneoulsly on the remote
to be programmed.


9. A single chime will be heard. The chime indicates the the remote was recognized.


10. Within 4 seconds of hearing the chime, press and release any button on the remote
being programmed.

11. A single chime will be heard The chime indicates the remote has been programmed.

12. Repeat steps 8 to 11 for a total of 4 remotes.

13. Turn the ignition to the OFF position or wait 60 seconds to exit program mode.

Replaced the ecm computer on 2001 dodge durango then start it up and it runs and then cuts itself off after 15 seconds

The ECU would have to be programmed from the dealer. It normally costs somewhere around $100 to have it reprogrammed. The reason it needs reprogrammed is because the factory theft module in your car is different than the theft module in the car that the "new" ECU came from. I had this problem with my 1997 Cadillac Deville.

All you would have to do is get it to a Dodge dealership and have them reprogram the ECU. Make sure you explain that you just replaced the ECU, and you need it reprogrammed to match your SUV.

Please vote on my solution whether good or bad. Thanks! :D

Reprogram 2005 Dodge Durango key fob

Go to the dealer. It is the only way, they have to use a computer. Changing the battery doesn't make it lose it's program though. You most likely broke the battery hold down. This is the most common thing I see at my shop. If the key still starts the vehicle, you now have a bad key fob. If not, you may be able to get it reprogrammed.
