Maybe it's just out of sync.
personally, I am always out of synch. This is a good suggestion and got me further in the service manual. I learned something new:
KEYLESS ENTRY TRANSMITTER
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
Note: If the transmitter unlock button has been pressed repeatedly while out of range of the receiver, synchronization
may have to be restored. To do so, perform the Transmitter Programming procedure in this
section.
The programming procedure as follow:
STANDARD PROCEDURE - TRANSMITTER PROGRAMMING
The Remote Keyless Entry Transmitter(s) can be programmed by the customer without special tools.
PROGRAMMING PROCEDURE
Transmitter programming by the customer is done by performing the following steps:
1. Insert the key into the ignition switch.
2. Press either the lock or unlock button momentarily twice.
3. Turn the key in the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position within 30 seconds
I will give this a try and report back.
