Good to know I'm not alone! The warning is constant now. No matter how many times I clear the error, it's back within seconds. What was the fix for yours?

Mine was exactly the same! Constant warning, keyless entry kaput. I ended up just taking it to a workshop. Turned out to be a faulty battery in the key fob. They replaced it, and everything was golden again. Didn't cost an arm and a leg, either.

Thanks for the tip! I'll swap out the battery, and hopefully, that'll do the trick. Saved me a ton of headache. A new battery in the key fob did the trick, and cost me 37€. Cheers!

I had something similar happen with my V50. Key fob acted all wonky. Does the warning pop up every time you start the car, or is it intermittent?
