Sounds like the contacts are still touching some how. Take the keyless apart and spray electronics contact type spray on the contacts and the points where the battery connects to see if this will help. Are you using a brand battery or a cheap-o?

The battery connection inside the key likes to break.
Have to go into body computer with DRB3 to disable horn honk when locking vehicle.
Above your rearview mirror there should be a small black 'ball' (extending from the roof of the car). That is your module. If it's not there, I'm not sure if your Jeep has it. You can always refer to the owner's manual (you can snag one from eBay cheap if you don't already have it) or drop by your Jeep dealership to have them find out for you. Hope this helps!
Use the key. The keyless remote only unlocks the doors and doesn't govern how you start the car. If you can't get in the car, try using the ignition key for the door. Sometimes the two are keyed the same. Otherwise, you're going to have to get a new keyfob.
Possible weak battery in the remote.
RKE, remote keyless entry. That message in the cluster means that either a remote is failing, or the battery in it is weak.
You do not have to reset the keyless remote after battery replacement.
how do you change the battery in a 2002 jetta keyless entry pad?
Open the keyless remote and you will see the battery take it out and replace it with the same size.
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.

If the key will not work in the door or the liftgate, you will need to call a locksmith or break a window.
