Abstract
Communication with a key fob of a vehicle can be controlled based on a key fob jamming condition. One or more sensors can be configured to detect the key fob jamming condition. In response to the key fob jamming condition being detected, a jamming device can be activated to cause one or more jamming signals to be emitted. The one or more jamming signals can prevent the key fob from receiving and responding to other signals.
