Default Very strange problem with my S2000...

The remote will not work in any way, form, or fashion. It worked when I got in it satuday... when I arrived 30 miles later, it would not lock the car or open the trunk. the light comes on, on the remote (actually both remotes) but nothing happens. At 1st I thought it was the valet button, but I thought if it was on it would light the light. Any ideas?

press remote on left cheek, then press buttons seriously...

oh, are you sure you're not hitting the power sliding door button on your Odyssey remote? I do that at times

Two things I would check

The fuse for the doorlocks and if there is one for the keyless entry. I would check all fuses in case

I would check the location and condition of the recieving wire (antenna) along with any connections under the dash by the pedals.


Just a suggestion ...

try using your other supplied remote. if it works, something is wrong with the first remote.
