Hi, I recently purchased a Croma and have joined here to read about peoples experiences with them and to get some advice on issues ive had with the key fob. The fob would stop working after the car had been idle for 10 hours or more and only start working again one ide used the key in the door.
I changed the battery in the fob but this didnt make any difference. However around a month later the fob now only works for around 5 minutes after the car has been idle. Its as if the fob or receiver fall asleep after a certain time and only wake up again once the key has been used, the other thing to note aswell is that when the fob etc is "awake" and working the fob will actually work from distance.
Ive been searching the internet for people with the same issue but yet to find someone with the same symptoms.
Also the alarm goes off when I use the key and I have to turn it off with the fob and am concerned if the fob stops working altogether then I wont know how to turn the alarm off?
Any help on this would be massively appreciated.
Kind regards
Lee
