Vehicle Remote Entry Failures

[Reschke]

Reschke, check and see if the contacts on your remote transmitter where the battery is and see if the solder connection has broke or is loose. That connection can be resoldered and the transmitter will continue working.  On your Vue that is.

Will check that later...lucky for me I have a nice soldering iron set with some fine soldering wire for just all sorts of stuff that I never do anymore.

Ok .. guy in our vette club was havin similar issues and after a bit of detective work figured out that his wife was keepin the keyfob too close to the vette so it was arming-disarming the system pretty much 24-7 as she walked in and out of the house within range to trigger the arm-disarm on her daily errands.
It was runnin the battery down after a few days both in the keyfob and on the car.

Problem was solved by turning off the 'passive' alarm function on her keyfob.

Dunno if Camry has a passive arm-disarm function, but if it does and you keep the keyfob at borderline range of effect, it will cycle arm-disarm apparantly just for laffs
