Why is my FOB not working on my Land Rover?
When I pull on the driver’s door handle the door opens and the alarm sounds until I silence it with the fob. On a trip to the bank just now I managed to lock all the doors with the fob, but when I returned, the fob unlock button would only trigger a feeble click in the door and it would not unlock.
Why is the rear hatch on a Range Rover not opening?

Why does my Land Rover alarm beep when I leave the car?
Problem: Over the past few days, my MY11 LR4 emits the two brief Euro-sounding alert beeps a few seconds after I leave the vehicle and press the lock button on the key fob.

What to do if you can’t open the rear hatch?
If so, then get busy and remove the carpet panels on the lower hatch so even if you have to close the rear before you get parts, that at least you have access. Also there are the rear hatch release buttons on the front dash if the problem is the rubber switch – which is an easier fix – just pry out the switch and install a new one.
