  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

My wife got stranded when the fob didn't work. "Can't find key" icon was on dash
I went to her assistance with the spare and it worked fine. I checked the battery in her fob and it read 2.8-2.9 volts.I tried the manual's recommendation of locking and unlocking the door manually with the key,then reinserting it in the fob and it worked fine TWICE. This morning didn't work again,so can I assume the fob is kaput?

Also is it possible to carry a spare fob in the car if its placed in the trunk in some kind of container? Kind of scary to know you can get stuck anytime with no warning.
Thanks
Stu

Does the car start when the FOB is placed in the slot for it?
