WhackyWill Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Parked this evening in my usual place and pressed the remote to lock the car, but it wouldn't lock, so thought it must be the battery in the remote. Locked it manually with the key. When I opened it with the key the alarm went off until I got the key into the ignition and started it. . Got home and now the remote works fine and locks and opens the car..!! My mate had this prob with his Scuby as well a while back. First time its happened to the Zed, sure somebody out there knows the answer. :scare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilogikal1 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 I'm going to hazard a guess that there was a radio tower nearby to where you parked which interfered with the signal from your key. It's fairly common. Oh, and in typical WhackyWill fashion, have a random too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Her tracking device is my mobile phone... My mate got caught with this device a few weeks ago. His wife tracked him to a car park in the centre of Glasgow, she chapped on the car window and cooly said " you two all cosy in there" True story.
