Default Changed Battery, Door Locks Not Working from Key FOB

Perhaps a silly question but, I changed out the Battery in my 1998 Tahoe and now the power door locks no longer work from my key fob. I have to manually open the door with the key and push the power locks from the inside to either open all the doors or to "lock" all the doors and leave the car.

Any ideas on what I may have done? Thanks!

if you change the battery you will have to resynchronize the fobs. Stand next to the vehicle and press the lock and unlock buttons on the fob at the same time and hold for 7 seconds.
