    • If you find any water damage, replace the remote.
    • If there is no water damage, go to step 2.
  2. Replace the remote batteries (A) with new ones (CR2025), and try to lock and unlock the doors with the remote by pressing the lock or unlock button 5 or 6 times.
    • If the doors lock and unlock, the remote is OK.
