Keyless entry fob problems - both of our clickers were working only sporadically, so we replaced batteries in both. One now works well, but the other does not. We followed the programming instructions in the user manual, and that seemed to fix it at first, but after about 3 times that clicker would no longer lock or unlock the car. Its little red indicator light does go on when a button is pressed. Any suggestions?

Try reprogramming both again, starting with the one which works sporadically.

subaru have 2 security codes one for the key/ignition switch(magnetic code)and one for the remote(rolling electronic) the car is reccognising the key but not the remotes signal to the central locking.
try locking the car with the key then pressing and the holding the unlock button on the remote for 30 secs, see if the car unlocks.if not unlock the car etc....or... put key in door and hold over for 30 secs..etc

My toyota 2007 yaris 4dr sedan keyless entry not working

If your keyless entry remote has never worked it either needs to be programmed to the vehicle or it is the incorrect remote part number for they vehicle. First step is to call your local dealership, ask for service, then verify your vehicle came equipped with the keyless entry option and verify the key fob part number. When calling the dealer have your vin# handy, they will need that. Once you have verified your vehicle has keyless entry option and you have the correct keyless entry remote part number then find a locksmith to program the remote to your vehicle. We suggest a locksmith because they are usually more affordable than the dealer and they come to you.

If your keyless entry remote has worked before and it just stopped working, here are a few tips to try to get it working again:

1) Change the battery
Batteries don't last forever, you'll be surprised how often it's just a dead battery! Search our YouTube channel on how to change a key fob battery for your specific year, make, and model!

2) Wipe the board
The board inside your remote can get a lot more filthy than you think! When the board is dirty it can prohibit the contact to the circuit board when you push down on the button. Simply wiping the circuit board off can make your key fob like new again!

3) Get it checked
Go to your local hardware store like AutoZone or Oreilly's. They usually have a RF frequency tester. This little gadget will let you know if your key fob is sending a signal. If it is, you may need to reprogram your key fob to your vehicle

4) The old car battery reset trick
I know this sounds absurd, but it works sometimes and is worth trying. If you exhausted all of the options above, disconnect both terminals on your car battery for 10 minutes. Then reconnect them and try your key fob. This has worked for many people and I have no idea why. If you do, please comment below to explain.

5) New fob!
It might be time for a new key fob! No need to dread over the expensive costs of a new key fob, at Keyless Entry Remote Fob Inc., you can get a refurbished one for a very affordable price! You won't even be able to tell the difference. Just search your vehicle make, model, and year to purchase a key fob or give us a call at 402-671-5100.
