if the battery fell out then the other key fob might need re-programming.
or the chip is broke/missing
or the battery is broke/missing
just some ideas to get the old key working

I thought the XDR was programmed to the ECU and couldnt be changed. Only the RCL can be reprogrammed. With vaux that is. I have no idea about other makes.
