Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 2Original post

Please try a search...this is covered everywhere, for example: http://www.renntech.org/forums/index...409&hl=key+fob

POST 3Original post

The battery charges when its in the ignition...sometimes if I don't use a key for a while it seems to die until I use it for a while.

POST 4Original post

Are you sure about that? I don't think so. It is true that the car will lock the key fob out after x many days (I think 5 or so) and that you will need to manually unlock the car and then hit the key fob to get it all squared away.

POST 5Original post

I must be wrong then, I didn't realize it had a set number of days.

POST 6Original post

Not true. The battery in the key is not "rechargeable" and there is no charger in the key or ignition. When the battery goes dead it must be replaced.
