Keyless entry remote "dead zone"

Within the last couple of days, both my driveway and carport have become a dead zone for several vehicles' keyless entry remotes. They work fine except for when said vehicle is parked at my house. Anyone ever expirience this or know what could be going on?

Try holding it to your head

Happened at my old house, turned out it was haunted. Spirits of the damned have some kind of beef with keyless entry.

how old are the remotes?

Did you recently put LED lights in your garage? The step down transformers in those LED bulbs can interfere with RF signals. Keyless remotes, garage door openers, etc.

Sounds like the FBI is using a jammer on you.
Been part of any highly illegal activities lately? Notice a lack of phone calls coming in to cell phones?
The black suits are comin for ya!!

Gotta go with the touch door handle on the car. It'll change your life. No more needing to even think about your keys.
I wish my apartment door had that

Please keep us updated if you discover culprit. I had a similar issue at my house last year for about 3 days. On the morning of the 4th day, things began working just fine. 'Twas bizarre

It sounds like the battery in your remote needs to be changed.

my garage door openers all quit at the same time. i changed batteries and nothing worked except getting close to the opener itself.
i realized that i had changed out all of the 12v interior lights in my travel trailer to LED, and was still working on it in the driveway. when i turned off the lights, the garage door openers worked just fine.
tldr: LED lights emit signals that interfere with radio waves

Could be the battery on the remote fob.
But aim it at your head and keep pressing buttons in the front yard to check. If you feel a tingle, there's definitely a signal. It may take a few dozen tries with each remote.
Don't worry if you look stupid. That's normal.
