What would cause a 2000 GMC Jimmy keyless entry remote to stop working after battery replaced and reprogrammed correctly was working and stopped?

This happened to me too. It turned out that I had damaged the battery holder thingey when changing the battery and it would intermittently not be connecting the battery. A little solder to repair and reprogram and all was well. hope that helps.
before you spend too much money..check the solder and.try this.
On the inside of the keyless remotes, there are rubber buttons, those rubbers buttons are brushed with metal of some sort so that it reacts with the motherboard, when the remotes get older this metal wears off...so try this, it worked for me...
I superglued foil paper to the back of the button (the parts that touches the motherboard when pressed) and replaced the batteries... it worked like a charm, I used an awl and a hammer to make perfectly round piece of foil and just glued it onto the back of the button... i'd try this first before spending any real money

Why the keyless entry will not lock or unlock the doors?
One reason that your keyless entry may not work is that the battery is dead, take it an auto parts store and have the keyless entry battery replaced. If that does not fix it you will need to take it to the dealer to have the keyless entry reprogrammed.
