Both of my Stock Keyless Remotes Quit working today...

So I haven't driven my evo in a couple days but last time i did my stock keyless remotes worked perfectly fine. I just took my car to the car wash and when I got back I went to lock my car with the remote and it didn't work at all. So i was like okay I've used the same keyless remote for the past 3.5 yrs so maybe the battery died so i grabbed my spare set and tried to lock the car and that didn't work either. Like i said the remote worked perfectly fine a coupe days ago then the car sat in my garage for a couple days, and now both of them don't work. Any suggestions on why both of my stock keyless remotes just quit working???

how do you reset the ecu? i had my battery unhooked for a week so the frame could be straitened and weldin could be done. but both of my remotes dont work and they have fresh batteries. If you have to reprogram it how do you do it?

I hope not cuz they said it was 90 bucks an hour for shop labor and the best mitsu guy doesnt work there anymore... ill try disconnecting the battery and see if that changes anything. it don't have a radio in it either could that affect it at all?
