Key Fob Battery Issue
I am having an issue with my key fob draining the battery about 2-4 weeks. Any thoughts on why this maybe happening?
Thanks. |

oh, interesting, yes, my keys are close in same situation and the second key sits in a desk drawer over the parking spot LOL.
I was just thinking out loud I guess. Odd that would just start to happen. Perhaps a bad batch of replacement batteries??? Mike

My service adviser spoke with the shop forman and he recommended that I switch the battery to a non energizer battery which mine was. I switched to a Duracell. We'll see if that helps.
