It's a receiver module needs replacing, cost is around £300 at fords

If you don’t mind me asking what is a receiver module? I don’t know anything about cars, I’m trying to search it up on Google & it’s showing me a computer for my car? Is that the exact same thing?

yes its basically a small computer box, it's what controls the ring around the ignition barrel that reads your key, when it starts to go wrong it has trouble reading your key and needs to be replaced by fords as they need to program the new one to your car

Thank you so much!! I’m going to get my car checked out at the Ford dealership and I’ll let them know to check that out

Where you able to fix the problem..I have the same issue but now my car wont start even after an hour of trying..no key detected.

Yes I agree that whatever sensor there is in the car that recognizes the key is probably the problem. I do not believe it is cell phone related as it has happened with no phone around. Thank you.

My sister's has exact same problem, and without any resolution for now. Have you found the root cause?
