2012 C30- remotes don't work suddenly

Post by pgoes »

A stranger posted this question on another website - https://ask.metafilter.com/331153/Did-s ... cery-store:

"My 2012 Volvo C30's key fobs stopped working this afternoon. Both of them. I was able to unlock my car with the manual key in the driver's door, and start it to drive home....... However, there's a rapid clicking sound coming from (1) under my driver's seat and (2) the passenger door. .....". ( and there's more at the link, like disconnecting the battery!)

If someone knows the answer you could post it here and I'll notify the original questioner.

Read all the helpful rocket surgery on the link...I'd KISS and check battery voltage. Never heard of a low battery causing this issue, but you don't hear what's not posted...
