  8. Many instances of "No Transponder Detected" conditions are related to external environmental influences, in most cases some form of radio frequency interference. If that is suspected, question the customer about the conditions or locations where the condition occurs.If the condition is caused by external influences, the system operates as designed and there is no actual fault that could be diagnosed with this procedure.External environmental influences may include:
    • Flat screen televisions
    • Darkness sensing exterior lights
    • Cell phones and cell phone chargers
    • Power inverters
    • Gas stations with pay-at-the-pump radio frequency transponders
    • Any area with high radio frequency traffic. For example airports, police stations and fire stations.
