Angry Remote door lock

Hi,
walmart replaced my battery and now my remote door lock will not work. Walmart told me to read my owners manual but I can't find anything on the subject. Does anyone know how to get the door lock to work again? Thanks

I have a 2000 which I just programmed a new remote a few days ago. The procedure was in my owner's manual. You simply sit in the drivers seat with the remote you wish to program and any other remotes you currently possess. You place your key in the ignition in position 3 (1 is auxillary, 2 is key entry, 3 is off, 4 is ignition on, 5 is start). You then turn the key from position 3 to 4 6 to 8 times within 10 seconds. The power locks will unlock and lock to confirm you are in the program mode. You then press a button on your remote within 20 seconds, pressing the button should cause the locks to do what the button indicates. If you have another remote you need to press a button on it also within 20 seconds or it will be unprogrammed. Once you have finished programming all of your remotes wait out the 20 seconds or so and the Expy will leave the program mode by unlocking/locking the doors as before. Hope this helps!

I just tried this on my '97 Expedition, but nothing happened (the power locks never locked/unlocked). Could this indicate a further problem, or is there another way to do it on '97's? Please help!

romote door lock

After I posted the problem with my 97 exped, about the remote no longer worked after my battery was replaced, I drove it for a couple of days and the remote started working again. I guess it needed time to re-learn the codes.
