I don't know if anyone knows this but I tried it and it works.

If you lock your keys in the car and have a spare key fob this will work. First call someone on your cell phone to their cell phone. Hold your cell phone about a foot from the car. Have them hit unlock on the key fob into their cell phone. Presto, your car is unlocked and you can get your keys.

I tried this about a mile from my house and it worked fine, could even lock the car too. Hope this helps someone in the future.

I've heard that to be bogus

**blackSS01** · 03-16-2008, 10:13 AM

I tried it and it worked for me. Try it.

**GTP231** · 03-16-2008, 10:15 AM

I would if I knew where my spare fob was

**blackSS01** · 03-16-2008, 10:17 AM

I only have one fob to, I just locked the car first with no keys in the car and left. Had someone by the car for me to make sure it worked. And bingo, to make sure they were not lying I tried locking it and I heard my horn in the background.

lol, are you guys for real? this sounds freaking awesome

**blackSS01** · 03-16-2008, 10:22 AM

Dead serious. I tried and tested before I posted. I sure know I don't want an angry LS1.com after me.

I might have to try this one.

i just had this same conversation with someone else who claimed he tried it to get into his SUV. he said he called wife in another state and had her press the key fob to unlock the door and it worked. Of course i was like...

but now...

you ppl are idiots...

a key fob doesnt work off of vibrations... which is what sounds waves are... and is what a cell phone can produce...

they work off a radio frequency, which a cell phone can produce. so you are an idiot.

Try it, it works.

**blackout5.3** · 03-16-2008, 04:49 PM

we tried it with the venture van at my old job, it worked, it takes a few times of trying but it does eventually get a signal

**9t8z28** · 03-16-2008, 05:14 PM

WTF did I do wrong?

dude, they definitely works off of radio frequencies

**chuckie669** · 03-16-2008, 06:05 PM

I've heard from someone who tried it and says it works. I have a second key fob but have yet to program it. Isn't that how Onstar works if you lock your keys in the car?
