1998 Buick Park Avenue 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive

I have a 1998 buick park avenue and my keyless entry remote just recently stopped working. I replaced the battery thinking that would solve the problem. Well...it didnt...I cant arm my car or lock the doors w/out using the keys and that becomes a headache. So is the remote busted or is it like a fuse or something else that I need to replace...Plz help!!!

If you can locate the receiver for your alarm system, then you can check the fuse, wiring and connectors.

If these all check out, then your remote is in fact busted. (Some part stores have something that could check the remote for you)
