Keyless entry distance.
Does anyone else have to be right next to their car to use the remote? I changed the battery but still have a 15ft max distance. Does any one know how to make the single stronger so it works past 15 ft. Thanks

That works, but mine has always worked from pretty far, no way as far as my 4runner, but pretty damn far.

u get more range cause ur holding it up higher than normal from hip level to chin level can make a little diff. so basically raising ur arm in the air and doing it should work even better. also it helps if you dont have alot of other junk in ur car that can interfere with the signal.
