Fobs not working

The buttons also wear out, which is a common reason why a fob stops functioning. When you press a button on your fob the contacts inside transmit coded signals to the receiver inside your car to communicate the actions you would like the key to do. If the contacts are worn out and damaged, pressing the button might not work at all or it may send different messages than what you were hoping for.
