Remote door unlocking not working
This is about my 2000 Odyssey LX. I have aftermarket remote door
lock/unlock on it. You know, the little fobs that can lock or unlock the door from a distance. The original batteries on the things lasted about four years and I replaced them last summer. Now, six months later, the things aren't working right. I can't electronically unlock the car, even when I'm close enough to touch it. When I start the car, all the doors are supposed to lock, but they don't. The doors DO lock remotely, but they don't unlock. And it's displaying the same behavior with both of the two key fobs that I have, both of which got a fresh battery six months ago. My guess is that this might be related to the weather. In the northeastern US where I live, it's been single digits much of the past two weeks, and we've had a few nights of temperatures of 5 to 10 below zero F. The car is kept in a garage of course, but I'll bet some of those nights it's gotten down to single digits in the garage too. Just wondering if other Odyssey owners have experienced this. I seem to remember the remotes and the lock-upon-start not working right in previous years, but I don't know if it's been in cold. |

Please refer to or do a google groups search: ["lock/unlock (aftermarket)" odyssey honda] (use quotes, omit brackets) for what I'm now stuck trying to fix. |
