why doesn't my keyless entry work?
 

it works when im really close but not from any further than 5 feet. and yes obviously i changed the batteries so thats not it. its a 97 gt.

any ideas?

factory or aftermarket?

Your gonna laugh your ass off when I tell you this, but go try it. Go to a distance you know your remote is out of range. Open your mouth and press the remote fob straight up under your chin and press the button.

i have this problem to but from around 10 feet away changed the battery to.

please tell me your joking. Theirs no way that can happen unless your body acts as an antenna. and its not strong enough to do that.

fob to chin WORKS

My god it does.....but how?

the open mouth thing is new but the fob to the chin is an old trick. I have also heard that your body acts as an antenna(mostly water right?) and helps to transmit further. I have also hear that it is mainly because most remotes tend to transmit a littler further from the sides then they do directly infront of the remote. Either way I have done it and seen it get you another 20 yrds from where it would not work to where it will.
