Toyota Corolla Remote Locking Problems?
Toyota Corolla Remote Locking Problems?
I have a 2003 Corolla ascent that the central locking now doens't work properly.
Batteries have been checked.
As you push the remotes the light still goes.
The car locks do nothing.
If you hold the remote directly under the steering wheel, the locking system works, but as soon as you move the remote further away, it will no loonger work.
Is there something wrong with sensors?
PLEASE HELP! Problem occurred just out of warranty and Toyota won't quote me on it as they can't pinpoint problem without chargable time.
Cheers
The batteries have been tested by 2 different businesses, including Toyota.
The remotes work, but only if I am holding the remotes under the steering wheel.
Answers:
KirksWorld: I'd replace the batteries anyway as I don't know what you mean by "checked". Otherwise it may be that your remote unit is defective, or may have gotten wet.

Brian C: probably the antenna for the alarm got unplugged or knocked loose, since range is such an issue, it's like trying to talk to a walkie talkie with no antenna on it
