SOURCE: remote car key not working to unlock car. it does

Most likely the remote is the culprit.It sending a signal and the body control module is receiving it so that eliminates the remainder of the system.If you have two remotes then try the other one.If not, you can go to your nearest dealership and they have a remote checker.They can set the remote on it and push the buttons and it will light up if all the buttons are working on your remote.Hope this information helps,
Ken

SOURCE: keyless remote works intermittently

replace the battery in your remote, or have it checked at autozone to make sure it's not just your remote.

SOURCE: door/trunk won't open with remote

I dont know what buick you have, but here is a site that should help you out, remotes can be programed for several different options, such as turning on/off the interior light when unlocked, or keeping the headlights on/off when locked. on the site listed below, follow links to your speciffic make, and it will list the directions for programming.

SOURCE: it rained in my car and now my trunk release does

Sounds like water got to that trunk release. Pull it out, try drying it off, or replacing it if it looks damaged. maybe water is still collected at the electrical connector, or has corroded it.

A plastic clip that holds the lock linkage is probably broke or worn. You need to pull of the inner door panel to see whats going on inside. Use the remote and see whats happening. It could be bent rod in door from someone using a slim jim to unlock it when they locked the keys in it at some point. Bend the rod and try the remote again untill it works properly.
