In addition to devices that operate on the same frequency, there are environmental factors that could affect the signal of a car's key fob.

In certain situations the key fob might not be able to receive radio signals even when it is near to the vehicle.

To ensure that your key fob is in good health examine the battery. The battery is in good condition and the contacts must not be affected by corrosion. A corroded or damaged connection is the primary reason the keyfob doesn't respond to radio signals coming from vehicles. A depleted battery could cause the fob to malfunction. If the issue continues to persist after replacing the battery the antenna may be faulty. A professional locksmith will examine the key fob and make any necessary repairs.(Image: https://www.thekeylab.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/sb-instagram-feed-images/310300814_438157535072560_441431797686435441_nlow.jpg)
