Remote Keyless Entry STB
Getting the run around...
Both my Fobs stopped working.
I went thru the resync, then the relearn
I replaced the batteries in both, then resynced / relearned.
Finally brought it to the dealer.
They replaced the Transmitter/Receiver. No help.
They claimed to have talked to GM, who suggested that I buy a new Fob and try that. I told the dealer I would spend my money on a warranty issue.
So the dealer sprung for the Fob.
It actually worked longer than my original ones but now, 6 days later, I stoped also.
Anybody out have a similar experience. I like the convenience of the RKE especially in the rain, I could live without it, but why should I?
Thanks :cheers:

Mine don't work either. Who knows why? I know it is attached to the tire sensors. But they work. I'm just gonna install aftermarket ones. I hate the way the FOB looks anyway.

Re: Remote Keyless Entry STB (BostonVette)
same problem on mine...I have thought about aftermarket, but I have heard horror stories about electrical system conflicts. I only use it to unlock the car, I can lock it as I get out. So I just bought myself a cool vette keychain.

Re: Remote Keyless Entry STB (larry2)
I have had the new OEM Fob for over a week now...
The damn thing still works, can it be the FOB???
Would it be the batteries I installed in the two original FOBs. They were Radio Shack. I wouldn't think it mattered but this is getting a little bizzare.

Re: Remote Keyless Entry STB (BostonVette)
Both of minw are acting the same way, just after having my car stored this winter.....if I resync them, they will work for a day or two, but act like on valet all the time so will unlock my car upon approching.....and sometimes if I am too close for too long will unlock it also without me knowing! :mad :confused: :bs
