- VX SEDAN...AND A VE TOO!
Looking for some advice...out of the blue, went to start my VX sedan today...remote wouldn't unlock car...after some mucking around...went and got my spare key.,...same problem.
Didn't sound like relay/s responded to remote button push...nothing else.
Tried to unlock driver's door with key...no luck...key turned in lock all the way [both ways] but the snipper button didn't move...zippo.
Didn't feel any "interference nor resistance" when turning the key...
I checked the coin battery in remote housing...showed at 2.9v...which I realise is a little low...but should still function?
Can car's battery have died overnight sufficient to disable door mechanism??
Reassembled the key...retried and same result...locked out of my car....what to do? Is therrer a workaround to gain access to engine compartment to check car battery? Or am I stuck with needing to call [and pay] for some Service Provider to overcome this problem?? Times like this; being stuck on a Pension is not ideal!
