Key fob not recognized

Asked by srm515 Dec 01, 2021 at 07:43 PM about the 2010 Cadillac SRX Performance FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My 2010 SRX doesn't recognize my key fobs, but ONLY when it's in my
garage!  I can start it by putting the fob in the storage tray, back out of the
garage, and then everything works normally.  When I return to the garage, the
fob isn't detectable.  I have new batteries installed.  This just started.  
Everything has been working fine for the past 10 years.  Any ideas?????

1 Answer

Unfortunately, that wasn't it. There was some sort of interference in my garage. As I said, it only failed while in my garage. It always worked everywhere else. I had to have the dealer reprogram the frequencies, not only the fobs. $90 later, it works!
