Remote locking/unlocking problem.

[johnnywal]

Hi, just noticed that both key fobs will not remotely lock or unlock my GC. They manually work via the handles/buttons but not via the remote buttons even if you are next to the GC.
Does this indicate batteries flat or near flat in the remotes (strange for both to go at the same time), or something further.
GC is a MY14 Laredo diesel, and I have basically only used one remote.

how do you add apost?

i would replace the batteries and then report back . sounds like battery issues to me

[johnnywal]

Do you just split the remotes to replace the batteries or is there some special way of gain entry?? I didn't like to try with my jeweller's screwdrivers just incase that was incorrect. My previous Territory one was done that way.

Or the tip of your emergency key blade. I did one of mine yesterday, the "key fob battery low" indicator cam up on my EVIC

I did mine like that few weeks ago (didn't get an EVIC indicator though). There's also a diagram in the handbook showing correct way to angle the key blade in the slot, then prise the 2 halves apart.

Thanks THOMMO and SouthernComfort, will have a go later this arvo.
Should have known to have a look in the handbook!
