3 montha ago my factory keyless entry didn't work I had to open the door using the key The next morning it was working fine all by itself. No problem until today the keyless entry doesn't work again. The batteries in the key are very good i'm thinking maybe a loose connection with the antenna if it has one because if I hold the key below the dashboard I can get it to work maybe you can figure it out honda says they can only fix it when it happens help

Hi fabfive16,

You mentioned the batteries were good, but did you try to clean the contacts? Quite often remotes don't work due to bad contacts.

Reregistering the key might help but this can only be done by with the HDS ( Honda Diagnostics System )
