Mazda Protege Keyless Entry Remotes & progamming instructions

Resurrecting this thread... 
Just wondering, if you do this to two Proteges at the same time, in sequence, in theory... you could have one remote operate two cars correct? Not sure why you would want to do that but hell it would be cool to try.
Other than that, I have a spare remote I tried to program and it would not work. It did work on my original one though so I think this extra remote that came with the car when I bought it is either the wrong model (?) or is just bad because I even swapped the batteries and my old one still worked but could never get the new one to attach to the ECU.

I have a 04' mazda 6 and im having the same sort of issue. all of a suddon i was trying to unlock my trunk and it stopped working. so ive tried the steps and when i get to the last step of pressing the keyless entry button and taking the key out the ECU is supposed to open and lock 4 times. It only does it two times and then the keyless still doesnt work.
anyone have any suggestions?

Okay, here's an oddball question for anyone reading...
What if you purchase a slightly 'off' transmitter? My GF's got an '00 Protege that we're touching up, and I snagged a second transmitter from Ebay for $8. When it got here, it wasn't as advertised (so I'll send it back if it doesn't work) but.. it's for an '02 Protege. I suppose I can give it a shot and see what happens.. Any feedback in advance would be useful, though.
Thanks!

Dammit.
Well, if anyone has an '02 Protege they need a keyless remote for, I've got one for sale - because it won't work for our '00 protege.
I confirmed that the battery's good (swapped it with the battery in my gf's remote on her keychain) and it's no joy.
MAKE SURE YOU BUY THE RIGHT PART!

*edit* the programming instructions worked like a charm to re-program the older remote, though!

Anyone have a spare, for a 2000 Protege, that they' dlike to unload? I have now found out that only ONE of our remote keyless units works.. the other one's fried.
