Exclamation Remote Keyless entry system will not unlock doors

Remote Keyless entry system will not unlock doors

From Mazda M-Tips this year...LED BULBS may be the issue..



If you encounter a customer concern regarding doors not
unlocking when using the Remote Keyless Entry System, check
for possible installation of aftermarket LED light bulbs. These
bulbs may produce electrical noise that may interfere with the
operation of the Remote Keyless Entry System.

If you determine the Remote Keyless Entry System door unlock
malfunction is caused by an aftermarket accessory, inform the
customer and do not attempt any repairs to the vehicle.


In other words remove your LED's and you mat get your Keyless Entry working as it should.

Hmmm maybe I should try pulling out some LED's I have a problem with the door locks but I thought it was the drivers side door lock actuator. I know from personal experience with my car that LED's can cause some serious electrical problems, one faulty led bulb caused problems with my parking lights, brake lights, abs, dsc, and cruise control systems.

Never had any issues with V-LEDs and just about every bulb(?) in the vehicle is now an V-LED.
Good to know for future reference when some do have the issue however!
