WELL..........so I'm thinking I put fresh batteries in it, but they have been sitting around a while, maybe three years.........:D

Honey did some grocery shopping today and picked up some CR2032 batteries, and guess what, it worked. Well, I'll be............:D

I was going to suggest putting it in rice. Glad it’s working.

Your honey just cheated you out of buying a new Corvette. I'd throw her to the curb... :leaving:

Had the same issue when I put a “new” battery in the C7 fob. It didn’t work.
Battery was from some Chinese company made string lites that my wife bought. I went out and bought a new battery and the fob worked fine.
PS. My fob did not go through a wash cycle.

do you suffer from low E? don't be like Norm and suffer from low E (low electric), get a fresh one, you might be pleased.
