Yeah my fob was atatched to my pants with a clip and I threw it in the washing machine, thought it was a goner. Nope still works.

Who knew.

Just throwing this out there, if my phone is too close to my fob, it will not work.

The only other thing I can add is that is even remotely related is that the motor that controls the locking and unlocking on my driver door has gotten weak. Often it will not unlock the door, though the car does sense my fob.
