Question Three-button Key (NOT FOB) Stopped Working

The 3-button key for my 2008 RX 350 stopped working, so I thought it was time for a new battery. After a battery replacement, it's still not working. The red light comes on as normal, but no locking/unlocking, trunk opening or panic response. I just noticed this after some maintenance work at the local dealership. Any "old key wisdom" is very welcome. I tried a general online search and only found a lot of info about FOBs.

I'd Definitely go back to the dealer and see if they did something to make your 3 Button key Not Work, it Sounds like they Did some Reprogramming to me. Good Luck!
