you cannot replace the battery in those remotes.well you can if you break it open & are handy with the soldering iron etc

sounds like you need a new remote key head. Mr Minit apparently can supply them nowadays. Or your local holden dealer may have them cheaper than they have been over the last few years - try them

Just done it, Holden Dealer was around $300.00, but could be a fraction more, couldn't quote a labour cost, Mr Minute $159.00, but you need to program it, they give you the instructions, or if you can't they will come and do it for you. By the way, the Holden dealer needed the car for the day.

The Holden dealer in Palmy used to do them for a shade under $100. The keys have to be programmed to the car (a bit like EWS on the BMWs)
There's a guy in Auckland who does them for a reasonable price but his name escapes me.
I've priced up getting Nissan ones done through a mobile lock smith for a spare key which was cheapest option. Didn't go through with it.
I got replacement remote rubber buttons from Autokey for a fistfull of dollars.
OBD2 scan tool should be at any auto electrician. Good luck.
