Default Key fob only works once between engine starts

.
I tested the key fob it's sending the signal at correct frequency with each press of any of the buttons.
The issue is that when I switch off the engine and take the key out I press a button and it will work, but if I press again and again and keep pressing nothing is happening with the car like the signal is not received. When I put the key back in the socked and start the engine then switch is off take out the key it will work again but ONCE only, so only 1 press of a button. Anyone else had similar problem?

Have you checked the splice for the antenna ground? Passenger side, front door, in that large loom under the sill trim. If you've ever had the sunroof drains blocked/degraded/torn, it can corrode and cause the issue you're talking about.
