Intermittent problem with FOB Key

Hi Guys

I have an 08 TL with the switchblade key. Sometimes i can't lock my car. I have to press lock about 10 times. sometimes i have to press unlock a few times and then lock - then it works. Not sure if maybe its just the battery?

If my FOB is messed up, can i program my old grey FOB from my 06TL that i smashed to pieces to work with my 08?

Thank you

Agree on battery; and it's easier to switch out than it initially looks.
