why doesn't my remote work in the cold?
 

My remote key-less entry/lock seems to not work under 65 degrees. Anybody else have this problem?

Start with the simple and cheap stuff,
Replace the batteries.

Then check the remote sensors located in the car. Look at the owners manual for trouble shorting and locations.

Sometimes if your remote is near your smartphone it might bug out. Read the owners manual to re-learn the remote.

Hope that helps.

LOL "cold".

Try pressing the remote on the start button. The start button has a 125KHz LF antenna in it, that’s capable of providing enough power to the remote to overcome a flat battery, as long as it’s very close (like touching).

And yeah, change the battery.

Man I'm in Florida and I don't even call 65 cold. That is still shirtless running weather. Hahaha.

My vote is also on battery.

I put the AC on at 65!

Is it not working at all, or is the distance that it works reduced?



Your avatar must be freezing, then!

Hmm . . . minus 17 degrees F this morning. I'm wearing a short sleeve shirt.


Haven't seen a mosquito in a while . . . :thumbsup:

I may have to resort to the heavier hoodie if I go out at night over the next week or so.

We're talking about cold, right?

Remote still works... alley is so lumpy with ice I need a rally suspension though!

Giving Californians a bad name here, calling 65 cold.

Hey Norcal guys who has that pic from October with all the Cali crew in their parkas and the two crazy northerners in shorts and tee shirts?

That was a nice post - even though I heard that civics have stronger remotes, is that true - :iono:
