Focus Mk2 Central Locking Issue

Hi

This is my first post and I hope I can find some help here as I have a problem. Last week I took the car to have the timing belt kit replaced along with the water pump. After I took it back, when I got home I realised the central locking is not working anymore. It was working fine when I left it there. I have tried to reset the fob using the 4 contacts thing, I also have a new battery on the remote but still no success. It's like the is no central locking on the car, when I press a button nothing happens. Any ideas what else to check and what the guys in the garage may have done?

Thanks in advance

    Yes, that did it, the thing was, I have bought a battery from Poundland which it was new but it was still not working, and after that i went and bought a duracell one which did the trick... SO no more poundshop batteries for me...
