I have a 07 . The key fob does not lock/unlock the door. What can I check to diagnose problem?
The fuse are fine. I checked the fuse box that is under the glove compartment. The power locks still work when pressing the button inside the car.

I'd still attempt replacing the battery that can be bought at Walmart for very little.
The replacement takes 2 minutes.

get new batteries then reprogram them, it takes 30 seconds. I've done this several times in the past few years
Step 1: Open driver side door and leave open.
Step 2: Lock and Unlock the drivers door using the power door lock switch on the door
Step 3: Insert key into the ignition.
Step 4: Turn Key to ON position and return to Lock (off) position. Do this 3 times within 10 seconds. LEAVE key in the ignition in Lock (off) position.
Step 5: Close and open the drivers door 3 times. Leave door open after this step
Step 6: ECU should respond by locking and unlocking the doors once.
Step 7: Press any button on remote #1 twice. ECU responds by locking and unlocking the car doors.
Step 8: Additional remotes, repeat Step 7 for up to 3 remotes total.
Step 9: Remove the key from the ignition and the ECU will respond a final time with a series (about 4) of door locks and unlocks. You're done!
