2003 Camry Keyless Entry Not Working

[pradeep1]

About 3 months ago, the keyless entry system started working erratically. Both key fobs would work sometimes and sometimes not. I changed the batteries in both of them and everything seemed to work fine for a few weeks, then the same problem.

Now, they both completely don't work.

Is this a problem of the key fobs or something in the car?

BTW, I searched the FAQs and all I could find was about programming new keyless fobs.

Not sure, but it might be your battery problem.

You mean battery in the car - it is working fine...I had it replaced not 8 months ago.

Just to be sure, I went to WalMart and bought new batteries for both key fobs and it still did not work.

What possibly could be wrong?

My aftermarket alarm sometimes has hick ups and I have to reprogram both remotes.

If you have a factory installed alarm, have you checked www.camrystuff.com?

Did you perhaps get the remotes wet? Maybe leave them in the pocket of pants that went through the washing machine?

I thought about that. My key fob would be at risk of getting wet (gym workout in sweaty pocket maybe), but my wife's would never be at risk. Both don't work.
