Key fob failure after windshield tint redone
Had my windshield tinted CR70 about 2weeks ago. All car components were fine. Brought my car in two days ago to have the tint redone due to bubbling and residue that did not dry up. After having the tint redone with supposedly CR70, my key fob and smart key system both failed.
I cannot click to lock or unlock doors, open trunk or use panic button. Proximity sensor also failed, and dome light does not turn on when key fob is near vehicle. When pressing the push start button, an orange key symbol flashes for about 15seconds. Thinking the fob battery died, I tried 2 different new batteries with same result. What's going on here? Did the tint installer cause water damage to some electrical components? Did he pull a fast one and switched tints that may be causing interference? Coincidental blown fuse? Any input is appreciated, thanks. TLDR; tinted front windshield CR70, had some bubbles. Had it redone. Afterwards keyless entry, proximity sensor and smart system failed.
