So, let me start by saying, I've already tested new batteries and new fobs, as well as reprogrammed the working (zero issue) fobs from all three of my other rigs to eliminate all of that as the culprit.
Range of remotes on my Expedition is just horrible. Typically, I need to be within 20 feet of it for it to activate - occasionally, I've gotten significantly farther away, but nothing ever consistent.
Meanwhile, on my Explorer, my Crown Vic, and my Super Duty, all of those can be 100-150 feet away (or, often, farther) without issue, and with significant obstacles (i.e. a house, or a bunch of other cars in a parking lot) in the way, and still work flawlessly.
I haven't started digging into manuals yet, but, does anyone know where the receiver/antenna for the remote keyless entry is located? I want to see if there's something wonky with it that I might be able to resolve.
