Key fob not detected?
Why all of a sudden I get this popping up on the screen when i try to start the car? I have to remove the key, and insert the fob into the steering wheel column slot, and then will start....BOTH key fobs are doing this....pulled the fob battery, and it tested 2.95 volts......will a drop of .05 volts stop it from working?

Um, 12v battery, FOB battery. I'm a tad confused as to the topic and the problem. Glad you got it fixed!
