Problem overview

Some Chevrolet Aveo owners report experiencing issues with their remote door opener, where the doors do not lock even after replacing the battery. Common factors contributing to this problem include a dead coin battery in the key fob, worn buttons, poor battery contact, and potential water damage. Additionally, issues such as receiver module malfunctions, signal interference, a dead 12-volt battery, unpaired keys needing reprogramming, or a defective remote control may also be at play. It is crucial for owners to ensure that the keyless entry remote transmitters are properly programmed by testing the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons and observing the system's response. If problems continue despite battery replacement, further investigation into these potential causes is recommended for effective resolution.
