[s-cars] on another note, IR remote no work

[forrest bradshaw]

so I have not been able to get my IR remote to unlock the car for past three years, batteries were replaced, and directions followed via owners manual, no luck.  the little red light works.  the car will sound the horn when programming and car locks, but I get no response after that, I have also noticed that many other listers are having the same exact problem to the point.  there is a tech link also but it's the same as the manual.
  tried programming once in friends garage and his S4 responded when my car was being  programmed (his car did not work either)
  perhaps the memory is full like the post above for RF remotes?
  can I clear the memory the same way or does the battery need to be disconnected?
  the electro guts to this key are implanted from another S4 key, but it still should work.
   
  I'd really like to solve this problem as I'm sick of scratching my paint fumbling in the dark to unlock the car, or when I am in a hurry running from women who are out to get me;)
  I'd like also to give some knowledge back to this forum.
  Forrest--with useless keyless entry
   
  maybe I could remove it for weight reduction, eh
