Keyfob help

[sanfrdnsun]

I took apart my key fob to replace a low battery and now the fob does not work at all. The red light does not light up. I've tried 10 different batteries, including the one I took out that was "low." Anybody know what might be going on? Thought maybe it wasn't making proper contact, but literally all I did was take it apart, like normal, new battery, put it back together.

At least one person has put the battery in upside down. Other than that I've not really looked at what is inside.

battery might be upside down

Battery is not upside down. Even took it to the dealer and they replaced it with a new battery, still does not work.

Is there any chance that you had an ESD event while replacing the battery?

Not to my knowledge, but anything is possible.

The answers here have not been very helpful. I replaced my keyfob battery. Car starts, panic button works, but the other 3 buttons don't work anymore. How do I fix this?
