Can any of the experienced x trailers help ??
Daft question but did the unit work fine until you changed the battery or did you replace the battery as the remote was not working so you thought it was a flat battery ?

If its the former then you would not normally need to re-teach the fob just because you changed the battery. On some vehicles if a key such as a spare is not used for a long period and the battery is flat then a re-teach might be required.

If its the latter might be worth getting the key fob repaired.
