Key fob issue

Hey there,

Got an issue with both of my keys today. They can't open/close doors - unless the key are right next to the door handle at drivers side.

Keys have no problem when igniting the car and also opens the trunk without issues. I changed batteries in both keys today (red light when pushing buttons).

Any hints ?

More than likely handle w/incorporated sensor needs replacement, need VIN to supply correct replacement part #. Or you can attempt repair: 211 (same as 219):

In the days following I got several electrical issues. Got a new battery and that solved it.
