RFID-MFRC522 completely stops reading data after some attempts

Good night everyone.

I am currently working on an automatic door lock based on an Arduino Uno, a 5 V Input/12 V output relay, a 12 V power source and a MFRC522 RFID module.

However, after setting up the circuit according to the datasheet and running the library main code "AccessControl", the RFID completely stops reading cards. It only works again after restarting it (and sometimes, it takes more than one attempt).

Another detail is that when it enters in the "Master Card" mode, it also freezes on it, requiring again some resets for working again.

Here is my code:

   Use a Master Card which is act as Programmer then you can able to choose card holders who will granted access or not

 * **Easy User Interface**

   Just one RFID tag needed whether Delete or Add Tags. You can choose to use Leds for output or Serial LCD module to inform users.

 * **Stores Information on EEPROM**

   Information stored on non volatile Arduino's EEPROM memory to preserve Users' tag and Master Card. No Information lost
   if power lost. EEPROM has unlimited Read cycle but roughly 100,000 limited Write cycle.

 * **Security**
   To keep it simple we are going to use Tag's Unique IDs. It's simple and not hacker proof.

Our schematic:


The relay is connected to the 5V Arduino Output and the Digital Output 4

Do you have any clues about what might be going on? If you need any additional information, tell me. Thanks!

Your code (in code tags)
Your schematic.
A picture of your setup.

Added the code and the schematic to the main post, here is our setup:

Another picture because I can only add 1 image per post:

Your Fritzing picture shows an UNO + RFID module,
but do I see an Adafruit data logger shield on the real pictures.
Did you check which (SPI) pins it is using for the SD card?
Leo..

That's a good point! My friend did some tests today and those were the results:

Arduino + RFID Module + Data Logger = Error
Arduino + RFID Module = Everything works out pretty well
Arduino + RFID Module + Relay = Everything still works well
Arduino + RFID Module + Relay + Electric Door Lock = Error

So we guess maybe it is something related to the data logger and the tension of the electric lock. What do you think?
