from the vehicle. Stand closer during rainy or
snowy weather.

Check the location. Other vehicles or objects may
be blocking the signal. Take a few steps to the left
or right, hold the transmitter higher, and try again.
.
Check the transmitter's battery. See Battery
Replacement later in this section.
.
If the transmitter is still not working correctly, see
your dealer/retailer or a qualified technician for
service.
