Here you go. In my experience, method 3 generally works for most cars.

Hi Thanks for the reply.
But the fob key i have for my car its has only one button for the lock and unlock, but in the link provided method 3 is mentioned unlock button and lock button, as my understanding its 2button fob key.

Try a variation of method 3, do step 1 then step 2 and then try holding the button. If that fails then do step 1 then step 2 and then try pushing the button 3 times. Would be wise to change the battery in the key fob just to make sure thats not messing you around.
