Push button start Malfunction ?

I wonder whether it's the same issue we had with our 2019 Mazda CX5? This manifested itself as "Key not detected" on the dash when pressing the start button. We had to have a whole new keyless entry system fitted to fix it.

Some new cars have sit in seat to start - you put your butt on the drivers seat and it turns on, assuming you also have the key on you. Can't wait until that mechanism breaks and you're ripping out the car seats to start the damn car lol

Why would we even want a system like that.

At least once you find it the fix is cheap. Just rip out the wires and re-solder so its permanently on :D

Might as well throw in a weight sensor at that point so the car can shame you too!

"Welcome back sir, overindulged at lunch did we?"
 
Update
Garage looked at it

Nothing wrong with it

Suggests it's the new alarm system tapping I to a wire they shouldn't have
