My keyless entry is realy getting weak, meaning I have to be close to the car and have to hit the button a few times before it works. Anything I can do to fix this, without replacing the whole system. The remote has new batteries .

 

take the remote apart and use a pencil eraser to clean the contacts that the rubber buttons contact when you push them in. only takes a minute, helped on mine

Ok I'll will try this when my wife gets home with the car. Damn and I thought I was buying this car for me. Ha, ha, ha.

 

yes, if you keep your keys in your posket it will get condensation on the rubber contacts and will leave a black residue. take the remote apart, clean off the contacts on the bored and the rubber. While your at it replace the battery

 

Just replaced batteries last weekend. I'll try cleaning the cantacts hopefully that will help. Thanks.

 

yeah. I went through that as well. there was so much black crap on the contacts and rubber. thats what it was. since this post reminded me I judt did it again like 2 mins ago. I do it about once a month now

 

How far away did your remote work before and after?

 

mine worked from the same didtence. it was just a matter of sitting there holding down the button till my thumb was about to fall off.. now just a light press
