Remote Key

My 2001 avensis remote just wouldnt work today.

so i had the Battery changed by a jewler and it still doesnt nothing

worked to open the car in the morning, 40 min drive later it doesnt work!

Anyone else had this happen and does anyone know the cost of fixing it?

check the Battery the jeweller put in has charge first. you never know how long he has had them on the shelf.

Is it in the same parking place each time as i believe a remote key fob can be effected by electrical fields

Got the car home and the remote worked!

next day same car park and it didnt. must be interference

I had phoned the dealer before figuring this out and they said they could recode my remotes for £free!!

I believe that is what I said in my previous post the same thing happened to me recently I wondered if it might be the case

You could trying parking in a different area of the car park

Thanks for the feed back

its was just the car park and surrounding area!

right beside a university and a buidling used by railtrack

either of which could be using equipment that had an effect.

its gone today though. might have been testing radio equipment out or something
