Key fob issues
I have recently started having an odd issue with my key fob, everytime I train the fob to the car and leave it for any amount of time the fob unteaches itself from the car and stops working. I can teach it again and it works fine till I leave the car again for any given time.
The fob has a new battery and still does it, so...has anyone one else had this issue before? Maybe I just need to buy a new key fob.
Just more or less curious if it has happened to anyone else?

Don't know what year car you're working on (it matters), but it's a very common issue. Here's one of the many threads about fixing the issue:

Check your fob per the link above and see if that is the problem. If your TPMS is working, the receiver in the car should be OK. If all else fails, replace the fob.
