Programmed key said 'security failed' today?
I've been using this key (the electric one) that was programmed for a long time (couple years now... maybe even since 2004) and today I went to put it in after being gone for 3-4 hours driving it just fine, and all of a sudden I notice the tranny fault light (red light above the coin slot right under the shifter) start to light and then I see it said 'security failed' like my unprogrammed key. I took the key out, put it back in, and started it no problem.
Was wondering if this has happened to anyone else, was it of any significance, or should I just let it go? The red tranny fault light was also blinking slowly when I got to my house, got out and locked the car (I can't remember if it always did this so it was just worrying me). Or... is this a bit more important. `Cause there could've been that chance that the key just went to **** and I had no way of starting my car right there.
