Is it possible that the automatic opening doors on a building can cause your car to not start?
Robyn says it can and she can prove it. She parked her 2005 Camry outside her local newsagent the other morning and when she got in to drive off, nothing happened.
"The helpful, but unsuccessful, RACV man said the car's antitheft electronics had disabled the car. The car was towed to a garage in Mansfield where it started perfectly first go.
"According to the mechanic, this is not an unusual event if parked outside one of the chemist shops in Mansfield, and the tow truck driver said this happened to a lady outside the Foodworks at Eildon.
Apparently certain electronic frequencies of sliding shop doors can interfere with some cars' electronics if parked close by.
"This happens to my friend's sister all the time in her Jeep, so much so she carries a small spanner to disconnect the battery to reset the car's system.
