I have a 2006 xlt with the keyless entry remote. Recently i haven't been able to lock the truck too well with the remote the battery is new and the only way to lock the truck with it is to get really close to passenger side windshield. Any ideas on what the problem might be?

 

do you only have 1 FOB ?? try the other one if you have it...

 

i have 3 neither of them work only within 2 ft of radio antenna

 

Bad fob maybe?

 

But all three though? They all used to work.

 

Maybe the receiver is bad

 

how can i check that

 

Have you tried replacing the battery?? If the batterys are low they may not be able to produce a strong signal.

 

Well I have a brand new optima battery

 

No the batteries in the key fob
