I found that my key remotes were tired and ineffective caused by the batteries not being held in properly by the battery retainer clip. I shimmed behind the battery with a few layers of tape until the clearance between the battery and the cover of the key was taken up. The best way to check this is to remove the remote from the key as if you were to change the battery. Press the lock/unlock button while supporting the battery. If it works then it confirms that this is the problem. Otherwise you need to remove the Antenna for the remote as it is in a foam sheath located in the A-pillarl It is a 10 minute job and is listed elsewhere in the forum. Search for 'remote antenna' I did both and my range is 65 feet.
