    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,
