Key Fob Battery

I am over the key fob battery reportedly short life span.
I continually get "Key Battery Low" message on the EVIC.
Also get the message when using the rarely used Spare Key Fob.
Replaced the battery in the fob, but still receive the message.
Tested battery voltage, and reads 3.0V.
I therefore suspect this it really an issue with the Passive Entry Antenna located in the boot area.
RANT OVER.

We used to have that problem, but not anymore.

We had it fixed over the Christmas period when Jeep had our Overland for 4 weeks.

Oh, thats right, thats when the dash had to be removed 3 times back to firewall just so the guys could get to the back of the push start button. It was the solonoide or something or other that made the push button engage the starter that was faulty.

I hope it was just a coincidence for me and no one has to deal with.
