You're saying that a truck FOB in the same pocket as the Vette FOB will cause a "No Fob" message on the Vette DIC? Is that correct?

Thanks, fob battery went dead, had to use 2nd fob. Replaced battery and stuck in slot in glove compartment and lights blinked and fob is back! Pushing both top buttons didn't work like on the C-5. Slot reset my fob, didn't recognize it with new battery until I put it in there.

I believe this is a very valid statement. I did this with cheapo batteries on another car once, couldn't work out why the fob wouldn't work, even changed the batts again still no good. Put the old batteries back in and it worked again. Buy good name brand.

Locked out
On Sunday I went to reconnect the battery tender to my 05 Vette after being off for a week. When I tried to open the door nothing happened so I tried to open the hatch, still nothing. Pissed but not deterred I decided to open the hatch with the key but the key would not go into the lock (I have not used the key before this). Panic set in! After a few minutes I tried the fob again, this time it worked and I was able to get into the car, but this doesn't explain the key issue. Any suggestions?
UPDATE TUESDAY - CANNOT GET INTO TH CAR AGAIN! I'm going to get new batteries.

It does not use a key to open the door.
Look in the book to see what the key you got with your car is for.

I'm sure your 16 posts are due to you driving the car so much! I've had my car for 7 years, I assure you that I've noticed no key hole on the doors.
