Hello, I have an intermittent problem starting the car some days. The key is placed in the ignition and the engine turns over but will not fire. I look at the interior mirror alarm lights and they are flashing. I blip the alarm to activate and then blip again to deactivate. Go through the procedure above and the car will still not start. I then go to the alarm panel in the footwell and power off for a second. I then restart the car and it fires first time. I can go through a week or two with no problems and then it returns again. The frequency of this though is starting to increase. My questions are, is this a key fob problem (the batteries appear to be Ok when checked via the handbook) – do I need a new key, or is it likely to be the alarm it self? Does the alarm system recognize the key when it is in the ignition? Any help most appreciated.
Regards
Steve
