The wife's G gave us the flashing green key indicator a few weeks ago with her fob, so I picked up a new battery. Now she's getting the green indicator sometimes, and the red one (no start) other times. I checked the battery and it's reading over 3VDC. Tried my remote and it worked fine. Swapped the batteries between the two, and now both work fine.

I thought that the battery might be dropping out under a load (weak cell) but now that it works nicely in my remote I'm confused.

Does this sound like anything to anyone? Is there a way to manually reset the system and make it relearn the remotes without having a Consult?

Manually, no. Only consult. But the low battery detection will kind of stay in the BCM memory or something, so thats why the delay with the light stayed on. You can always stop by the dealer, tell them and they may reprogram them for safety.
