"key not accepted”

I deserve the fool of the month hat. My 1999 9-5 auto is showing “key not accepted” for both of my keys. I just put a new battery in each banana remote (same as old #CR2030) I pushed the unlock button 7 times and I pushed the trunk and other remote buttons with key in the on & start position but still no crank and “key not accepted” message but dash and headlights come on. I noticed that pushing the remote buttons no longer cause locks to lock & unlock. My car battery checks ok.
The SID has been showing “replace key battery” for at least a month and I thought, “well worst thing is that I’ll have to use the key to open the door”. After reading many post, I assume that I will have to have it towed and have my TWICE replaced. If anyone has any cost saving suggestions for a financial struggling fool, I am all ears (little brain). ToddH
