both of my keyless entry remotes for my 98 pathfinder stopped working within a few months of each other. i replaced the batteries in each, and they still do not work. is there something i have to do to activate or synch it with my car? i read the manual, and it said to press a couple of buttons and then hit the unlock button, but nothing has worked. kind of tired having to use my key to open all the doors now. thanks

I found these instructions for my 97 QX4, they might work for you too.

* Make sure you have a good battery in your remote before starting this procedure.

1- Sit in the car and lock all the doors.2- Put the key in the ignition and take it out immediately (like you do with some credit card machines at the gas stations). 3- Repeat step 2 about 7-10 times until you see you signal lights flashing.4- Put the key in ignition again and turn it to the "ON" position.5- Press the unlock button on your remote.6- The doors should unlock. And your keyless remote has been programmed.

Hope this helps.
