Default Car won't unlock with keyfob, just relocks itself!

I hit the unlock button the keyfob and the car unlocks for half second then immediately relocks and chirps. What's the deal? It unlocks with the key just fine but then the alarm isn't set is it? Help!

Default Try re-syncing the key with the car

It tells you how to do it in the owners manual. If that doesn't work, try replacing the battery in the fob

Default Ok I'll give that a shot.

Is that just a guess or is that the usual fix for this sort of problem?

Default Educated guess

I've had my remote stop working before and that has solved it, and even though your problem is that it half works, its worth a shot
