So the driver's side door won't lock and unlock with the key...I had to crawl through my trunk and unlock the door, so my alarm when off and now my car won't crank...

If your driver's side door won't lock and unlock with the key and you had to crawl through the trunk to unlock the door, causing the car alarm to go off and preventing the car from starting, here are some steps you can take:
  1. Disarm the alarm: If your car alarm is still going off, try disarming it using your key fob or by unlocking the driver's side door with your key.
  2. Check the battery: If the car won't start, check the battery to make sure it has a good charge. If the battery is dead, try jump-starting the car or replacing the battery.
  3. Check the door lock mechanism: If the driver's side door won't lock and unlock with the key, it's possible that there may be an issue with the door lock mechanism. Check to make sure that the lock is not stuck or damaged, and that the key is not worn or damaged.
  4. Check the fuse: If the door lock mechanism is not working, check the fuse for the power door locks. If the fuse is blown, replace it with a new one.
  5. Take the car to a professional: If you are unable to resolve the issue on your own, it may be necessary to take the car to a professional mechanic or locksmith for further diagnosis and repair.
Remember to always follow safety guidelines when working with cars and electrical systems, and to consult your car's owner manual for specific instructions and information.

Start Kia sportage with no alarm button

Usually if you use the key in the door lock to lock unlock the door it will disarm the security system on the car, when you unlock the door it has to be the drivers door, lock the door then unlock the door and hold the key in the unlock position for 2 seconds

I have a VW Golf 01 and the key fob opens and shuts the doors fine. But as soon as i put the key in the ignition to start the car it wont start all lights go off and the alarm goes off. Help please!

Okay, this sounds like theres a problem with the switch inside the door, try this, go to the passenger door and unlock it with the key, note if it has a lock, most newwer cars are only putting locks on drivers door, but if it has one use the key to unlock it and then try to start the car, if theres no lock then try the truck lock, unlock it with the key and try to start the car, if that doesnt work then use the fob to unlock all doors by pushing it two times and then start the car, the problem is the switch inside the door lock, this switch is part of the latch asm, good day.

Have you ever changed the battery in the key fob? Next time you go to start it unlock it by using the key in the drivers door lock turn to the unlock position and hold there your windows will lower and sunroof will open. Get in and start car if you do not have to lock/unlock to start change the fob battery if you do need the lock/unlock move your chip in your key is bad
