If your car has a remote start system that allows you to start the engine without having to insert a key, you may have experienced times when it doesn't work. Here are some possible reasons why:
1. The battery in your remote fob may be weak. If this is the case, try replacing the batteries.
2. You may be out of range of the car. The remote start system will only work if you're within a certain distance of the vehicle, typically around 100 feet. If you're further away than that, it won't work.
3. There may be something blocking the signal from your remote to the car's receiver. This could be anything from another car parked too close to yours, to a building or even trees and shrubs. Move to a different location and see if that helps.
4. The receiver in your car could be malfunctioning. If this is the case, you'll need to have it checked by a professional and potentially replaced.
