Remote door opener does not work. Put a new battery in the key fob but it still does not work. Some one suggested the problem could be a blown fuse. However there are numerous fuses in different locations. Plus, they are hard to get to and hard to remove.
Is there a manual showing the name and location of each fuse?
Could there be another problem and solution?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Gale
It could be that the remotes were out of Synch with the receiver (Car). Pl goto this page & try to resynchronize.

Are the OTHER remotes working properly? If so, there is no wiring issues. It is rare that wiring can cause the remotes to be inoperative...Sadly, I have observed many remote/fobs that simply fail. I would advise both of you to take your fobs to your local Toyota dealer, and have the Service Dept check the RF output from the remotes on their hand-held detector. This is the only way to determine if the fob/remote is indeed working. No RF = no lock/unlock. All Toyota dealers should have this box, it is a required special tool. The part number for the detector is 00002-09001-01
KEYFOB PROGRAMMING
If
the remote s faulty then key fob will not get programmed.
Insert
the key in ignition. Turn the key to on position, and cycle the key three times
off-on-off-on-off-on. Then with the key fob remote select your remote and then
try to operate the vehicle with remote.
These
are just the basic procedure, but sometimes it will not help.
On
that case dealer is the only option.

Mine is a 1997 Avalon with the same problem. I also replaced the battery (I tried two different new ones), and although it sometimes works when I press it VERY firmly, even that is unpredictable at best.
