Try it with it set to off. You just have to remember to set it back to on if thats the behavior you want regularly outside of washing your car or going back and forth to your car with your key in your pocket.

lol! This drove me crazy the first few washes! Then i figured out that it was because the water was hitting the door handle. I just put my key 50’ or so out of range when I'm washing now.

I will try this. Hopefully it’s not to bulky.

You get 2 and they work fantastically. They fit just fine in my pockets.

At least for EU cars, the fob can be disabled by pressing simultaneously both lock and unlock buttons for a couple of seconds.

Its annoying after a while. Washing car and you get the peep , peep over and over again. Was wondering if there’s a fob sequence to temporarily disable key. I know Toyota has a key fob function to temporarily disable the key from working/ Transmitting. Thanks.

i just put my key on my porch while i wash my car

Wait I need to try this when I get home. How do you reactivate the fob ?

By pressing once again any button on the fob.

It’s the water going over the door handle. The car can’t tell the difference between the water or you touching the handle.

Hi Guys, I wash my Type R FL5 every week by hand and I washed all my previous Civics and CRv myself. You don't need to do anything - Just leave the key fob inside the car when you wash your car and you won't have any problems. The doors can't lock from the outside when the key is inside.
