Yes i did, nothing happen, the key would not turn over at all. Iam going to place a order tomorrow for a new chrome key i guess. For the moment i can drive the car on my spare key.

The search function is more intended for the newbies but we established members have a right to ask imo...I never heard of a key failure so you are my first I hope someone bring lite to this...hopefully all will be ok.

The ignition uses an induction coil. A key fob with dead batteries (or batteries removed) won't open the doors but CAN still start the car.
Sounds like something in the circuit burned out. Do you hear the steering lock disengage?
