Nothing really new here.
Happens a lot around here especially at Walgreens and other store parking
lots.
It's a motion alarm/surveillance system that floodlights the parking
lot....likely from an adjoining business in this case.
The vehicle door locks etc still work but the range of the fob is severely
reduced in the instances around here.
I have to be right next to the car to overcome the interference.
If a radar detector is in the vehicle it will detect the radar
interference....I disabled detection on the Ku band....forgot which band for
sure but at least it shut up the detector.
