Problems with Ford Kuga: Key is not recognized

Hello everyone, I have a Ford Kuga and am experiencing repeated problems with the vehicle key. After a diagnosis with Carly, the key was no longer recognized and the engine could no longer be started. Following a tip from a friend, I disconnected the battery for 10 minutes, after which everything worked perfectly again. This is now the second time this has happened. Could it be due to the Carly adapter? Has anyone had similar experiences or any ideas as to what the problem could be? Many thanks in advance!

A Ford Kuga owner is experiencing issues with the vehicle key not being recognized, preventing the engine from starting. The problem was temporarily resolved by disconnecting the battery, leading to speculation that the Carly adapter might be causing the issue. Suggestions include testing the vehicle without the adapter, checking the key fob battery, reprogramming the key, and ensuring the adapter's software is up to date. If the problem persists, consulting a professional for the vehicle's electronic system is recommended.

Try using the vehicle without the adapter for a while to see if the problem persists. If the issue continues, it might be worth checking the key fob battery or having the key reprogrammed. Let me know how it goes or if you have any further questions!

Consider checking if there are any software updates available for the Carly adapter, as updates can sometimes resolve compatibility issues. If the problem persists without the adapter, it might be worth having the vehicle's electronic system checked by a professional. Let me know if you have any further questions!
