Stock Alarm Remote Short Range - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #45693 5 posts Started by meph137
My remote (stock) on my GT seems to have a very short range, I need to be about 1 or 2 metres from the car for it to work, sometimes it can be tricky 'blipping' the car even when im standing at the boot! I've replaced the battery which didnt change anything, anyone else have this problem or is it normal?

cheers!
Hey all - been looking around for why this might be but still got nowhere, no-one got any ideas?! kindasad.gif
Did you replace the battery with a quality one? The remotes are pretty demanding on battery characteristics so u need to make sure you use a good battery.
umm i might hav same problem i also replaced the batt and still short range i used energizer or w/e batt
i got that problems too. i think it has to do where the car is parked. some places it works farther and other im right next to the car and it barly works
