CR V Central Locking and Starting Issue

My 2004 Honda CR-V diesel's central locking is acting up, and sometimes the engine won't start unless the key is jammed in the ignition. The computer shows an error about the bumper antenna. Mileage is 86263 km. Could the antenna mess with starting the car? I'm considering antenna replacement, maybe it's the car radio or signal interference?

The problem may be linked to the antenna system, potentially affecting the car's electronic functions. A suggested solution is to have the antenna system inspected and possibly replaced, as faulty connections or components could be the cause. Booking a professional inspection is recommended to resolve the issue.

I had a similar issue on my CR-V. The symptoms you described are very close to what I experienced. Is the car showing any other electrical issues or only the central locking?

Just the central locking and the starting issue, nothing else seems affected. Did you manage to fix yours? What exactly was the problem? Was it the antenna mount?

The issue was indeed with the antenna system. I recommend taking it to a workshop for inspection as the cable or plug connection may be defective. I had to do the same.

I appreciate the advice! I'll book it in for a proper look. They've quoted me around 95€ for the repair, which sounds reasonable. Hopefully, that'll sort it out.
