Key fob not recognized

Asked by srm515 Dec 01, 2021 at 07:43 PM about the 2010 Cadillac SRX Performance FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My 2010 SRX doesn't recognize my key fobs, but ONLY when it's in my
garage!  I can start it by putting the fob in the storage tray, back out of the
garage, and then everything works normally.  When I return to the garage, the
fob isn't detectable.  I have new batteries installed.  This just started.  
Everything has been working fine for the past 10 years.  Any ideas?????

Unfortunately, that wasn't it. There was some sort of interference in my garage. As I said, it only failed while in my garage. It always worked everywhere else. I had to have the dealer reprogram the frequencies, not only the fobs. $90 later, it works!
