Lock Out

[rhosneigr]

Walked to the car on the car park of the local garden centre this morning, pressed the remote fob and nothing happens. Tried a few times whilst walking around the car, still nothing happening. Decided to unlock the boot with the key (don't know why) the alarm starts off. Closed the boot and the alarm stops after a few minutes. Decide to go back to the centre for 15 minutes to see if things would settle down. Came out and tried again but still would not unlock. Decided to get into the car using key but as soon as the key was turned in the lock the alarm goes off and I still could not open the door. My partner got her mobile out to phone a friend and as soon as she tries to connect hey presto the remote fob unlocks the car. Coincidence or what. Fob has worked fine all day since. Any comments would be welcomed.
