Hey guys this is probably a dumb question but in the mornings when i go to unlock my car the remote wont work, and i have to use the key to open it. Once i get in and put the key in the ignition the remote will work to unimobbolize the car and it will all work again. Both of my remotes are like this, do i need to replace the small batteries inside or do i replace both the remotes.
Thanks

yip one of two things there
1. batterys stuffed in FOBs
2. Central locking motors stuffed (common too)

So is the alarm actually dissarming before you enter car? or does it go off when you open door with key?

If so then just key fob battery, if not then motors bth really easy and cheap to replace

lol i am such a tool i actually dont use the alarm i disconnected it with the key you use to turn off the alarm in the engine bay,i just found it

anoying everytime i had to lock and unlock and it would go beep beep so i switched it off.But the central locking will still work and indicaters

will still flash,its just occasionly when i go to unlock it with the key fob it wont work.
