[Biturbos4] Problem with the key remote

[David Kavanagh]

I had to re-sync my key recently. I replaced the battery in the remote and 
it didnt' work at all. The owner's manual said to use the key in the outside 
lock, then within a minute, press either the A or the C button on the 
remote. After that, I was able to use my remote again. (BTW, the A and C 
buttons are lock and unlock)
