Jennbell Posted November 28, 2014 Report Share Posted November 28, 2014 I'm having a issue when I unlock my doors using the key fob. It unlocks the doors and turns the radio on. The fog lights no longer stay on (for a short period) but they flash and turn off. Any ideas before I spend $$$$ at the dealership? - Jenn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Hawkins Posted November 28, 2014 Report Share Posted November 28, 2014 I have never heard of that happening before. I don't think it is the Key Fob but maybe a bad sensor in the Car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Budman340 Posted November 29, 2014 Report Share Posted November 29, 2014 It could be a couple of different things. I remember there were issues with the radio staying on and causing a huge drain on the battery. It was an internal short with in the radio unit itself. As for the fog lights, sounds like it could be the headlight switch. I would also look for a wire issue. I have also seen worn wires and chewed through (gotta love the critters) wires. Also, check grounds. Look for corrosion where ground wires are. This too can cause alot of havoc with the electrical systems. Hope this helps.

Is the Fog Light issue a separate issue from the Key Fob issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
