I have a JTI 2-button keyless entry system that was installed about 5 years ago. After replacing the car’s battery the system no longer responds to the remotes. The place that put them in is out of business and I don’t think I got programming instructions.

I know how easy this is to do (I’ve done it on my Nissan factory ones) so I don’t want to pay some place $50. Does anyone know the procedure for these? Do they have a ‘learn’ button on the control module? Do you turn the ignition on & off several times?

Any help would be appreciated.
