    2004 Grand Prix, the remote won't unlock doors or open trunk or set alarm in extreme cold weather. Neither one will work. It's been below zero at night and in the morning it won't work, until it's about 5 to 10 degrees warmer.
    Any ideas?

    Cold and electronics arent always friends. I know my remote doesnt work from as far away when it's really cold, but still works.

    Not sure there is anything you can do because of fact that they still work when it's slightly warmer. Perhaps the battery is the remote is a little weaker but who knows.
