Default Key Fob Wont Work!!

Alright guys i just pulled my car out of storage and I am having a problem with my key fob..It will lock the car, and pop the trunk and all that, but it will not unlock the car..So it sucks cause if I lock it, then i have to unlock it with the key and my alarm goes off...So what do i have to do? get a new one from GM? Any info would REALLY help..Thanks guys

Take the remote apart and make sure the circuit board is completely clean. If it isn't clean it off with a q-tip and alcohol. Also make sure the back of the buttons are clean. There is a little magnet nubbin on the back of each button. Make sure they are in good shape and are clean. Also change the batteries.

If that doesn't work, then I would have to say you need new remotes.
