Key Fob opens/closes top - SOMETIMES!!! (Update)
OK...I give up. Am I holding my tongue the wrong way or not thinking positive thoughts? Sometimes my keyfob will open and close the top and other times it only lock and unlocks the doors.
I can't seem to identify a pattern. Is it something I'm doing or is there a problem with the fob or receiver? It always works with the key in the vehicle.
Followup: Replaced KeyFob battery and no change.
Followup#2 Still can't seem to establish a pattern. I've tried from almost touching the IR window on the door handle to 18" away in daylight and at night.

Found out that the FOB doesn't operate the top using either the drivers OR passenger side handle.
