Both of my key fobs are causing me pain and suffering! They have recently stopped working consistantly. I have replaced the batteries in each but only unlock the doors etc sometimes! When parked in the driveway or on the street they don't work. If parked in a parking lot, most of the time the fobs do work. If I use the key in the door to lock it and then unlock it with the key in the door the alarm goes off. Anyone have any suggestions?

 

Welcome to the forum,

I'd suggest you should head over to the S forum and check the posts there. :-)

A common problem is a build up of gunk on the contacts, search for a post by jon89 on cleaning them.

 

Hey Norri, thanks for the info but I have been unable to locate the post you mentioned. I did a search for posts by jon89 but couldn't find the one on cleaning the contacts.

Welcome to the forum rffusco.

I see that you have already solved the key fob problem. Once you have been upgraded to full membership, do read the FAQ thread in the S Type Section, loads of information about your '05.
