Key fob battery; spec and warning

[Ron_Burgundy]

Perhaps - although I can now say that after 2 new batteries the experience for me has been the same.

Replace battery, no warning for a few days. Warning starts, and increases in frequency until I change the battery again and the cycle continues.

I am about to change it again, so I’ll see if that was a fluke or if it behaves the same way again.

My experience was I got the shake to wake daily during first 10 days and it would go away and fob was fine. Then fob just stopped starting car even with new battery. Battery certainly has something to do with it, but it’s not the root cause of fob problems.

Oh interesting. I’m sure they’ll get it soon. I have a lot of PTSD over my Air Dream (029) and the key. At least the key card is easier to use on the gravity with the charge tray instead of holding on the star.

I have never had my key fob start working again without the battery change… just seems to get progressively worse until I change it. And to answer a previous question: the door locks work longer than the vehicle start.
