Keyless Entry won't work...
I just bought my first Lexus, a 99 GS 300 and I am pumped! However, the keyless entry does not work. I just put a new battery in it. What could it be? Thanks!

Same Problem
I was searching for a thread on this. My 1998 GS 300 that I have had for years just started this B.S. It would work half the time then replaced the battery 2 months ago and had the same result. In the past week it wont unlock anything. The red light on the key does work however. It worked great 2 years ago then gradually got worse and not working at all now. Let me know if anybody has a solution or experienced this.

Check on the reciever box and antenna in your car. Something in there might of come loose. Its the body panel closest to where the rear right passenger headrest is. Called a C-Pillar? Correct me if im wrong. The reciever is hidden in that panel.
Try to put your key right up next to it and see if it the alarm beeps. If it does, then its probably the antenna (reciever in car) that got disconnected causing a severe reduction in range. If it doesn't then it might be your key, or the reciever is blown.
