Radar Domes .... now you have me wondering ...
Now I can't say my car problem relates to parking it beside a Dome but from time to time I have taken the doggie up onto the hills around me and I park right beside the dome in the photo below ......
here are the car symptoms ....
Car has an alarm (with key fob) that opens all doors when deactivating the alarm .... i.e. fairly standard setup .... I always use the key Fob to switch alarm off/open all doors when starting off on my journey .....
It works perfectly all summer but as soon as the temp drops ..... first and every frosty morning this happens .....
1st thing on a cold morning ..... alarm switches off ok .... all doors unlock ok .... and immediately all doors re-lock
only way I can open front doors is to use key on each door ....
only way I can open back doors is to press the inside unlock button after getting in the front door(s) ......
so ....... off I go on my journey ..... car warms up .... 10 minutes later or so as I drive along all the doors I didn't bother to unlock (with the key or inside button) suddenly unlock .... don't worry, they don't open .... just unlock (as both the cabin temp or engine compartment temp rises) ....
-----------------------
I've also noticed that once inside and the key turned in the steering lock, all dials swing immediately full scale and then settle back to a normal position (even the speedo) .... again, only on really cold mornings ....car starts normally ...
I called a couple of Garages ..... they don't believe it but hint it's going to cost me a Bundle
what do you think? ....
