Default remote unlock not working

I have a 2007 Equinox, the key remote is not working all the time. New battery, remote unlocked locked and remote started vehicle. After 1/2 hour remote will not unlock car. Used key, then tried remote again and everything is working again till the next time the vehicle has been locked for any length of time. Any suggestion on where to look for a fix.

It may be due to a connection issue in the remote. I recommend consulting with a certified technician for additional assistance.

If you need assistance locating a technician near you, please PM me your zip code.
