sorry !! do you mean key won't turn or key turns but vehicle wont start? key won't turn ;- barel requires re coding ie key or barel worn. key turns but won't start;- depending on year of vehicle and type of remote, have you changed the remote battery, did car start before? some remote casings carry a very small chip inside. The vehicle immobiliser reads this chip to authenticate correct key is being used. This chip is not fixed but sits in a small cavity in the remote case they sometimes fall out if not aware of this you would not notice any difference when reasembling the remote. vehicle will not crank or start

Hello, i have seen this problem on my car before when ever the battery got disconected or gone dead. stereo antitheft loc is on and some times if you try to put to many wrong codes in unsucsesfully i had to turn key on for one hour and then the correct code entered.its usually in owners manual under anti-theft stereo loc.they should have wrote the code in there manualy when the car was new.i took mine to a car audio dealer and got the code from a couple of digets that showed up on the radio when he held on to two buttons at the same time and called for the codes that were programed in.this is just a helpfull guide to a related problem i had in a grand prix i bought used and put a new battery in and had no code.i live in louisville ky. and went to a after market dealer on dixie hwy. and it costed about 60 dollars.but since i tryed the wrong code more than three times he had to leave the ignition on for an hour before it would unlock.it worked and i wrote the code down.its usually a 3-4 number code.

What type of vehicle is it ?

Check remote computer fuses.

The batteries take a lot of power to send and receive data so you should get around 3 to 4 weeks per battery. If this is what you get it is normal.

Try putting your key in the ignition and turning the car on then pressing the button and it should work again! this worked for me :) good luck!
