Also, moving the remote from my left pocket to the center of the car allows the passenger door to open. The signal strength between the remote and the receiver(s) in the car is apparently very low. This might explain some of the peculiarities documented in this thread. |
I've had similar experience. When I'm standing by the driver's door, with the fob in my pocket, the passenger door cannot be opened first.
Referring back to the manual again (I love electronic publications!):
The Keyless Access System lets you lock and unlock
the doors and access the trunk without removing the
remote transmitter from your pocket, purse, briefcase,
etc. The keyless access transmitter must be within
3 feet (1 m) of the door or trunk being opened.
