[s-cars] Re: Door Lock/IR interaction. Does this make sense?

[Mark Strangways]

Originally I had that same thought.
Then the coffee set in.

If the IR was actually being sent and received properly, the rest of the 
locks should have opened. Of course I assume that they didn't. And we all 
know about assumptions.

So, did they or not Kent ;-)
May other thought was the cold affecting the batteries in the key.
I recently had IR issues, but replacing the batteries did the trick.
I think they work great then hit the edge and the power in them (the 
batteries) falls off very quick.

As usual YMMV, and the normal disclaimers :-)
