Hi there,

It appears that the security system is somehow shut down. None of buttons on wireless FOB [main key] is working to open the door etc. even though the red indicator lights up. If I use the key, it opens the doors fine. The powerdoor controls inside the car are working fine. I did notice that security light on the dashboard is not blinking anymore.

The car was idle for three-four weeks and it didn't start so I gave a jump with portable unit. Could that do any damage to fuse etc.?

please help.

Thanks,
Ashwini

If your battery died after sitting for a few weeks maybe it's time for a new one. Trying to squeeze more time out of a failing battery isn't a good plan. I would start with a new battery in the remote and in the car, tht would probably solve your problems.

Also, when the battery dies you can lose all your presets on th radio, windows, sun roof and rear deck. Instructions to reset are in your manual.
