Dear Experts,
I saw this posted in a forum and wanted to know if it is true. Technically it sounds impossible. Has anyone ever done this and got it working?
The forum post ---
Have you locked your keys in the car?
Does your car have remote keyless entry? This may come in handy someday. Good reason to own a cell phone: If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are at home, call someone at home on their mobile phone from your cell phone.
Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end. Your car will unlock. This saves someone from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other "remote" for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk). BooMod's Note: It works fine! We tried it out and it unlocked our car over a mobile phone!
