welly Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 My infra red key no longer operates the doors remotely. Have put a new battery in but still nothing. Is there a batery in the car receiver? I am assuming not. Most probably a problem with the key electrics? Anyone else experienced this problem?

Suzam Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Year and model, please. No Subaru receiver has a battery, they all run off of the car battery. Silly question: Do you only have one remote or can you try a second one? You can try to reprogram the remote to the car and see if that works. Info on the board or try http://www.cars101.com for instructions. If that fails the remote may be dead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skip Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Suzam says it all. To reprogram the remote you will have to find the service button. It's a momentary switch (button) under the dash. Sometimes hanging loose sometimes installed in a hole. May have a red colored button. Find your system here and follow the instructions Subaru Keyless entery BTW the remote is a RF (Radio Frequency) transmitter not IR (Infra Red) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
