1996 caddy anti theft system trouble how do you get the car to start?
Unfortunately, you will probably have to have the ignition switch replaced to get the car started again. There are two fine wires comming off of it which connect to the computer that reads the chip in the key. They have a tendency to break. I recently had mine replaced at a Caddy dealer for about $400.00. I later found a locksmith that said they would have done it for Approx. $250.00. (Yeah, I'm still hurtin' over that one!) You might be able to change it yourself, but with all the things that could go wrong, the airbag system, etc, while dropping and getting into the steering column, it's not necessarily a good idea to try.
All alarms are not the same. Read and follow the instructions.

Change the battery in a Mazda 6 key fob?
Press the button to unhinge your key and flip it open. Look where the key lies flat when closed, and there is a small tab. Push this tab in and the end assembly with the key assembly will slide out.
The battery is in the half with the buttons, not with your key. Split the half without the key open with a regular flathead screwdriver. The button battery is on the bottom half without the buttons. It takes one Duracell dl1620 battery (or generic equivalent, available at Radio Shack, is CR 1620). The replacement takes about 10 seconds once you have the fob open.
Be very careful pushing in the small tab, it is delicate and inclined to break.
