Just popped open onf of my FOBs.. Solder joints are fine.

i think if the battery is weak or the connection is weak then the key fobs don't work. i think that is what's wrong with mine.

:clueless: Haven't heard of that one. Maybe it's on the auto trans only. Don't have one on my 5 speed.

I've had to have two fobs replaced from my dealer. The solder is fine and a new battery was in and still didn't work. Most likely the carbon on the rubber side of the fob is no longer making the contact. Ebay has new inserts for $2.50 shipped. Ordered one and it worked great. Good luck and keep us posted.

Thank you for sharing what you have found to fix the key fobs. I hope you are continuing to have them working for you.

Have a happy holiday weekend.
