Here is a programmable key fob from Amazon for $28.00:

Since this post I have seen the IPM (integrated power module) have problems and cause this issue. We should do a CAN scan to confirm the issue. You can get a CAN scanner (Controller Area Network) which will work on most cars from Amazon.

Here is a video to show you how:

Here is how to change the IPM out which is easy because the unit self learns. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
