Hi guy i have got a 2014 on a 64 plate fiesta it's a 1.6 tdci  and I'm having problems with the key not being detected when I go to start it and I've had 3d auto key out to look at the keys and they are both fine and the grounds on the car are fine and after taking it to 3d auto keys themselves then it started working and it's been fine for the last few weeks but went to start it today and it's coming back up with key not detected any ideas for what is happening thanks

    2. Take car to a Ford main dealer and get the car diagnosed.
