key battery

Nope, once I replaced the battery the key worked fine. If you replaced the battery correctly it should work, unless you've got some other malfunction in there. Then I'd suggest going to a dealership.

I'm with Toolpants: must be something wrong. I've had my 01 for almost 2 years now. Never needed to change the battery so far. My Lexus key is past 3 years. Honda key is 8 years. No battery changes on any car.

I am having the same problem. I feel like my key is possesed. I works when it wants, and I have to be real close to the car for it to lock or unlock (even with a new battery) Sometimes it works then sometimes it doesn't. Can anyone help?
I am not sure if it's the receiver or the key malfunctioning.
