Funny thing, I haven't had a no start yet, but sometimes when I got to unlock or lock the truck with the FOB, nothing happens...then after a few tries it does..and I am standing right next to the truck...

My FOB has failed to unlock the doors a few times now, but I've figure out that when it happens, if I click the lock button and then the unlock button, it will then unlock. It is almost as if the truck thinks it is already unlocked so it fails to do anything until it gets a signal that it is again locked.

I found that if I press the button quickly it doesn't respond. I have to keep it pressed for about 1 sec. This mostly happens when I'm rolling down windows or using remote start. (something with two presses to activate commands)

Ditto on the lock button again. Happen to me yesterday. On the upside I had just bought a 12pk of beer. So if I couldn't get in atleast I could of had a cold one while I waited for the wrecker.
