Anti-theft systems are in place to prevent car theft, and they are always advancing. They stop power from flowing by breaking an electrical connection, which prevents the car from starting or causes it to shut off immediately. If your key fob battery dies and the system kicks in, make sure the battery is inserted correctly. In case the lock is damaged, you can use the cylinder on the passenger side.
