Re: Remote control stops working

OEM Alarm brain might be dead or the antenna may not be communicating with the transmitter. I don't think the OEM alarm is like the 6th gen's alarms where it's tied into the radio. I'd go aftermarket like DEI (Viper, Clifford, Sidewinder, Python, Avital, etc.) or Autopage. They're better alarms. Just my 2 cents.

Re: Remote control stops working

Look for broken solder connections between the circuit board and the part that holds the battery in.

Re: Remote control stops working

why do you need two? just use the other one. and open up the broken one. alot of times you just need to clean the metal contacts with alcohol (remove battery first obviously)
