AND MAKE ME A TOTAL LAUGHING STOCK

BUT EVERYTIME I GO TO MY LOCAL ASDA STORE MY KEY FOB WILL NOT WORK AND I CANT OPEN THE CAR I WAS WONDERING IF ANOTHER MEMBER HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM AS IT ONLY HAPPENS WHEN I GO SHOPPING AT THIS ONE STORE AND I FEEL REALLY STUPID FOR POSTING THIS BUT IT IS DRIVING ME MAD

AS I CAN NOT GO TO FORD AND SAY MY KEY DONT WORK WHEN I GO SHOPPING SO I WAS WONDERING IF THERE IS SOMEWAY THE KEY FOB SIGNAL CAN BE INTERFEARED WITH THIS IS WEIRD I KNOW BUT IT IS TOTALLY TRUE

Well that's a first!
Perhaps they want to keep you there longer so you'll buy more

I wonder if it could be more down to needing a new battery in the fob?

How far away from the car park do you have to be and is tthe same in each of the four main compass directions. Do they have a radio station in store or is there a taxi firm near by

I think ASDA use a transmitter system to operate the locks on their trolleys - basically there is a transmitting wireburiedaroundthe car park which transmits a signal to lock the wheel of trolleys that are being taken out of the car park - you can see that each trolley has a plastic gizmo fitted to one of the wheels.

I reckon if you try parking in a different part of the car park - that'll do the trick.

No wiFi is part of radio frequencies being broadcast out. What you meant was Wiffi

I haven't yet had the same problem at that Asda but will keep it in mind next time I use that car park
