I don't know if it's a problem with our car, or the gate electronics somehow, or just some sort of conflict between the gate electronics and our car window control electronics. Our car windows work fine at other times, but sometimes...not every time, which is kinda weird in itself...our car windows simply will not work as we approach a gate. It's a real problem when the card can't be held close enough to activate the gate.
Has anybody else experienced this? Any thoughts on what might be causing the problem? |

So as far as you know, your problem had nothing to do with the gates? It was just an auto control panel switch?

You don't really need to put the window down at the gate. Your card can be read thru the window. Have done it many times when it's pouring down rain..... just hold the card flat to the window and the gate will open. At least it works for me....

Highly doubtful it has anything to do with the gate. My guess is you don't roll your window up and down that much, other than when you do go through a gate. The window switches in cars can get intermittent where they work sometimes and decide not to when you really need them to. I just had one replaced myself in my 2 year old truck. It was related to my rear window so it was never a problem at the gates but my problem was I could put the window down using the driver door panel but it would not go back up unless I used the switch on the door the window was in. The real fun part was that it only did it sometimes, so I expected the dealer to not be able to replicate the issue. But, to my amazement, it did it when I was standing there with the service adviser, so they replaced the entire master switch panel for me under warranty.

There has been a high incidence of Sunspot / Solar Flares activity lately. You could just have had good timing.

Don't even need to hold it flat....but you do need to be close to the reader so if you are using inside the car get as close as you can.
