As I understand it - early Range Rovers were very prone to this fault and should have the receiver replaced.

Have yu tried searching in this forum?

look at this and this

Replace your RF receiver from the old defective original part AFR1953 which is subject to battery drains and engine lock outs to part number: YWY500170 which eliminates these issues and stops the cars RF receiver from being bombarded with spurious RF signals from CCTV in car parks etc that will lock you out your car, drain its battery and immobilise your engine.
