LOCKED OUT OF CAR......CELL PHONE TO THE RESCUE<br /><br /> This only applies to cars that can be unlocked by that remote button on your key ring.<br /><br />Should you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are home, and you don't ave "OnStar," here's your answer to the problem.<br /><br />If some one has access to the spare remote at your home, call them on your cell phone (or borrow one from someone if the cell phone is locked in the car too) Hold your (or anyone's) cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the other person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the phone.<br /><br />Your car will unlock. Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other "remote" for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk, or have the "horn" signal go off, or whatever)

Dunno if it would work.. I don't think it will since the remotes operate on a radio wave. I'm not sure if a radio wave can travel over a voice system.<br /><br />However... I'll give it a try on my car when I get a chance and let you know.<br /><br /><br />H.

How could it work? The remote is an RF Transmitter. <br /><br />P.T. Barnum was right! OH Brother! :rolleyes:

Did you know the word "gullible" is not in the dictionary?
