My remote doesn't work all the time. I changed the battery and still no go. I think the remote is fine. How can I find out whats up from the car's end? Thanks in advance people.

 

does it not work on the first try, or will it just not work at all sometimes?
i thought mine was like that, but i figured something out..
i duno why this is, but if i lock my car with the door lock and not the remote, it takes a few tries to unlock it with the remote, and it doesnt make a sound when it unlocks.
but if i lock and unlock it with the remote, it works on the first try and beeps.
weird stuff..

 

ya mine is fucked up to...i set it to beep then it doesn't beep, and sometimes i have to stand there for a while for it to unlock or lock..

 

Our remotes suck, sometimes I have to bang on the remote a few times b4 it sends signal, most of the times it just works, and for the last 3 years i've had my car, I always carry a spare battery in my wallet, cuz the batteries suck and the remotes suck and i don't want to get locked out of my car, cuz we all know how opening the door when the alarm's armed works

 

unfortunately

damn alarm is soo loud...but i like that idea of carrying a spare battery

 

Done it for 3 years bato, you never know when you'll need it

 

My main remote started acting funny a while back. It wouldn't always lock/unlock the car, but sometimes it would work. I sprayed it full of TV tuner cleaner, and that seemed to help, but it still wasn't very reliable. I need to set aside 30 minutes to give it a good cleaning and see if that fixes it.

Anyways...I tried the other, unused remote, and it's been working great ever since. If you have another remote, give it a try to see if the issue is on the car side or the remote side.

 

I can't the spot in the forum about programming the remote. Is it hard to do? Thanks people. I might just go to Acura and buy another one. Only about $50.

 

i just bumped it brutha
im doing the same thing
