This worked for me:

Press infrared key transmitter button while pointing key at infrared sensor.

Within one minute of pressing transmitter button, manually "lock" the
passenger door. (can't remember if it was already unlocked, or locked to
begin with).

Infrared system is now reactivated.

If it's a deeper out of sync issue, you will have to follow the advice of "Master-Munro", see post below...

Cheers, J.

	Paul;

	This usually works:

	1. Remove back seat bottom
	2. Open right rear door.
	3. Lock car with key or remote.
	4. Disconnect battery.
	5. Unlock car with key.
	6. Reconnect battery.

	This manually resets the lock & alarm system to where the electronics "know"
	it is.
