Hi,

My remote control does not open the car from 10 meters. I have to come
much closer to the car like 1 meter in order for it to work. I dont
want to think that its the battery in the remote because I changed that
one a few months ago. Would I be wrong to buy a new remote?

Did you use a name brand replacement battery?  Some of the cheap chinese
batteries are short lived.

I had not thought about the cheap batteries. I will change batteries
and see what happens.

Thanks for the advice John,

Fred
