06 keyfob wont reset

i replaced the main 12v battery on my 06 and both keyfobs stopped working right after that. No surprise. However the reset process wont work (key on/off 4x, hold unlock, lock 3x, release unlock). It worked last time I replaced the battery. Have tried numerous times. Dealer also tried it and could not get it to work. Tried ECU reset - no luck. Afraid something fried when I reconnected the battery... Anybody have any ideas on anything else to try?
