The good thing is that this is a fairly easy and inexpensive repair, you can just remove the battery 12 volts for several minutes (first take off the negative cable, then press the horn button a few times) to eliminate any remaining electrical current and then reconnect it in reverse order e.g. Positive cable first and then negative.

Dead Coin Battery

Replace it with a new battery that has the exact voltage, size and specification as the original. When replacing the battery on the key fob, remove all metal clips and ensure that the contacts on the key fob are clean and free of corrosion.

If the key fob was exposed to water (such as soapy tap water), it is recommended that you remove and clean the chip using an electronic cleaner or isopropyl ethanol before installing a new battery.

Electronic Chip Faulty

The key fob has a small electronic chip that transmits a signal to the receiver module when the key is used. If the signal received does not match that stored by the car the immobilizer is able to shut off the engine and prevent the vehicle from starting.
