I own a hot looking 2001 e38 sport model.
Just recently the remote key wont unlock the doors or trunk. it has always worked fine. I switched keys and no change.
I drive it every day so the key gets charged up.
Any ideas?

If the gas filler door lock jams, it will blow the fuse.

Does the inside central lock button work? If so, I suspect it's something else.
