HELP! Where do you put your “key”?

More than likely an issue with the battery contact in the key itself. The battery in the key can get loose and/or lose contact and cause the key not to transmit properly. Happens to one of my keys all the time. You just have to take the battery cover off and move the battery around and close it and it works. Recently I put a piece of folded up paper (not covering any contacts) to make it fit more tightly and it hasn't lost contact but it is too early to tell if it is a complete fix. I have even been driving when the car tells me there is no key in the car before.

FYI. You can drive off without the key!
i have a 981BS. I pulled it out on to the driveway to warm up.
After changing clothes, I went out to the running car, got in and drove off without the key.
It gives you a warning on the 3rd gauge.
If you don’t notice the warning you could drive a while, then shut off the engine and be stranded.
I read about a guy doing that with a late model Harley. He had to get a new key at the nearest dealership.

Left pocket and wallet goes in door side lower pocket that closes. Iphone normally right pocket and that will block the key from working, so that's why I put it in left.
Keyless entry works great. Used to 2014 boxster without and the simple thing of NOT getting key out to unlock or lock the car is really nice).
