Blowers stop working for one of 2 reasons as a rule. The first is overheating caused by a lack of lubrication. I recommend all turbo engines change the oil at 6K using fully synthetic lubricant. Also, the heat and excessive speed of a turbocharger causes the bearings to wear to the point that they freeze up or come apart. You can usually replace just the turbo cartridge to repair the issue but need to find out if overheating or loss of lubrication was the problem. The tubes carrying oil to the turbo can become clogged with hardened "coked" oil and need to be replaced or at least cleared.

You cannot make a remote work with the car if it has not been programmed in with a Tech II. The "press the button 4 times" option is used when you change the batterys in a remote and need to re-sync it with the car. The car still has the remote's unique ID stored internally, you are just syncing it back up again. My guess is that you got another key for your car so you'll have to visit a dealer or independent with a Tech II who can add them all to the car. You need all devices present to program them.
