Simply call in to your local Dealer and they can either supply a new remote control from stock, or order one on your behalf. Unfortunately this is a fairly common occurrence, which affects all car alarms at some time or other. In some places you park, you may be near to a Radio or Cellular Transmitter that is on the same operating frequency as that at which your car alarm remote controls transmit.

If the transmission range is too short what can be done to increase it?

Holtek Semiconductor - Remote Type MCU Series FAQs
The transmission range is too short because the carrier signal power level is too low. This can be remedied by reducing the value of the resistor between VDD and the transmitter IR LED. The value of resistor is normally between 1 and 2 ohms. The PA port on the HT48XA0-2 and HT48XA0-1 devices is the most simple port and is an NMOS type output or Schmitt Trigger input. When used as an input it is important to note that before reading the port the output should be set to a "1".

I just want a remote volume control, not source selection. Is there a way to do this?

Technical Support
All selection and level is done either on the front panel or at the remote; never both locations. Connecting just a VR 1 to the CP 64 or 52 remote control terminals will allow level adjustment. However without a source selector the unit will default to source one. If the PRIORITY / L4 INPUT automatic switching is enabled, then the unit will select the L4 signal when present and L1 at any other time.

This distance can be shortened by any number of things, including fluorescent lighting, sun spots, etc.
