Help!!!! Out of the blue, my Remote Keyless Entry stopped working. No doors, no trunk, no lights! I can unlock the driver door with key, but that's it. Also, my trunk has to be opened by key. Any suggestions out there?

Well.....no. I did think of that, and I am going to try a new one tommarrow. But I thought a dead battery would happen slowly, after a period of time. This thing quit all of a sudden. I will try a new one for sure and see if that cures the problem. Thanks.

It may be that your transmitter needs to be reset. After X-amount of times pressing the RKE when out of range, that happens.
To reset, get in range of the car and press the trunk button and within one second press the lock button. Hold them both down for about 3 or 4 seconds and it should reset and, hopefully, work.
Good luck!
