Default Key-less entry 2001

Hello everyone, our Jeep Cherokee Sport 2001 was bought a few days a go, the key chain is a key-less entry. but it doesn't work, checked the battery looks like a dime, nothing, does it have like an alarm box under the dashboard that controls the locks actuators that I can check? Thanks in advance TURBO.

I don't have an answer for you but I'm going to follow this one. My keyless entry doesn't work when its below freezing outside.

Sometimes the simple things are the ones in the middle. I open the key chain cleaned the battery contacts with a small piece of sand paper and it works perfect now, all three buttons the Lock Unlock and panic. thanks to you all.
