FOB issues? Anyone else???

[flipper]

Randomly my fob will not work. I will need to touch the push button start with it to start my jeep. Not a big deal but sometimes in the morning I can't unlock the jeep and need to use the actual key. This then sets off the alarm (neighbors are ready to kill me). I brought it in and of course the fob worked perfectly. I have 2 fobs and it happens randomly using both....help?

I've never had a problem with mine. Maybe it's the battery?

Had this exact problem. Pop the back cover with a tiny flathead and change the CR2450 coin battery and hopefully all should be good.

No mention of the year of your JL, but like @Jeepsmashin mentions, try replacing the batteries. They're pretty cheap.

--EDIT--

@BRuby beat me to it! I was gonna post the same video!

Was having the same issue. Bought batteries and now been problem free for a year...
