Default ***no fobs detected***help

Last night when the car was running I tried to roll down the windows, but they were not operating. I then turned the car off, then tried to start it....nothing. So I had the car towed to the house. I pulled the 2 month old optima and took it in for a recharging. I also checked the batteries inside of the FOB and they are good. So with everything back together, the car is still not reading either of the fobs. I cant unlock the doors, cant use panic button, nothing. When I push the start button it makes a few clicking noises, but that is it. Please help

stick one of the fobs in the spot where they go in the glove box. There is a way to reset them but not sure if thats in the manual or not?

If both fobs are not being recognized then chances are that your battery is discharged.
If its because of a bad battery your battery may need to be replaced.
If the battery takes a full charge there may be a drain somewhere in the system.
I just went through a battery discharging overnight because of a faulty switch in the passenger seat.
My fobs weren't recognized due to low battery voltage.
If your Vette is still under warranty have Chevy check it out for you.
