P38A Mistery problem

Hey guys
Got a mistery with my p38
once a “month” when I park the car at a supermarket or gas station it wil not start. No crank nothing.. says engine failure
Nano om could not find the problem

Best part is if the car is towed of puched about 30 meters it fires right up like nothing happened..

any body els got the same problem?
P38 1997 2.5 diesel auto btw

Engine Disabled, likely to be RF interference from something at the gas station. Use your Nanocom to turn off the EKA code in the BECM and the immobiliser and see if that helps.

Something sending a dodgy rf signal?

Super common on the early models, 3 types of rf receiver over the years, the latest one cures the issue but there are work arounds available I believe.
Just what I've read, no hands on knowledge.

+1.

Brian's 2 fob trick is the cheapest workaround.
