Key problem, I don't have a spare key and the key is not opening the door. The opening button on the key is very dead, please help me

First, the key"fob" has a battery inside. Any parts store should be able to help you replace it. Second, you should be able to insert the key into the door lock to manually unlock door. If car's battery is dead, most doors will let you insert the key and turn as far as it goes, Then operate the door handle and turn the key a bit more to unlock it.

Warm starting problem

Check your alternator. It does more than just charge the battery. If it is not working properly the fuel pump and injectors will stop thinking the car has been in an accident.

Battery dead every morning, hav 2 jump start..battery n alternator good

you have a drain on the battery. take the positive battery post off and connect a test light between the battery post and the cable. it should be very dim. if it is bright you have a short somewhere. make sure the doors are closed and take out the under hood bulb. if your test light is bright, start pulling fuses out untill light goes dim, then whatever fuse you removed to dim the light that will be the circut that is affected.
