Anyone else having problems with their key fob?

My key fob has stopped working properly and I’m not sure what’s going on. Has anyone else had the same problem or found a fix? I’d like to hear what others have done before I take it to a shop.

Yeah, mine acted up last week. It wouldn’t unlock unless I was standing right next to the car. I changed the battery and it started working fine again. Maybe try that first?

Mine was doing something similar and it turned out the fob got some moisture inside. I let it sit open for a few hours and it started working again.

If you’ve already tried a new battery and it still doesn’t work, it might be a signal issue. Sometimes electronics near your parking spot can mess with the fob’s signal.

The person who posted this might want to check if the spare key fob works. That helped me figure out if the problem was with the fob or the car itself.

True. I had to reprogram mine once. It just forgot how to talk to the car one day. You can usually find steps online for your model.

I think a lot of people are dealing with this. Could be weather or something weird with the car’s software too.
