One of mine is doing exactly that too, bit of a pain to unlock it with the key, set the alarm off, then stick the key in the ignition to stop the alarm. i`ve changed thebattery and the front cover/buttons and still no difference!

ok..:D

i replaced battery,,no joy

so i took it to bits and gave it the old air duster inside on the switches.

didn't work immediately, but just started working again about 5 minutes after that ???

on your fob is there two buttons one to open and one to unlock if so i would say one has got a bad contact

mine was strange though, as button was definately clicking

and would open the boot with the other button ( yet i still changed battery ) Lol :D

i am taking it as there was a bit of crap in the micro switch, and airduster has solved it, as its been back to normal since.
