MY car suddenly started activating panic alarm this morning. pulled car battery thinking it might be low and spazzing out, voltage was ok. put back on and did it again. pulled the batter out of the fob and problem stopped. Replaced the FOB battery and was fine all day. Suddenly tonight it was doing it again just sitting in driveway. I disconnected car battery again just to shut it up as the FOB would not shut horn off. Could be bad fob battery, but sort of doubt it as not 3hrs ago I was able to remote start the car from inside my office building with no issue so the transmitter had power to send signal a good ways thru building.
Long story short, the wifes fob buttons do not work, so thinking time to bite the bullet and get a new set. RockAuto has Dorman ones (actually with a cool OBD2 port reporgramming module.), but I am curious what OEM part number is to check pricing? I have two programmed FOBs, plus Forscan as well if it is required.
My fob looks like the one pictured in this Doorman replacement item on rockauto.
Thoughts? Not looking to try reman fob, wifes was one of those and it lasted 2mos and buttons stopped working.
