The fob has/needs a transponder in it. Mine look like a glass pill. The car has to be programmed to read each pills corresponding number. If the number is not in the cars memory, it will not start. Open up the fob and see if it is in there. If it is, then you need to take it to the dealer and or a higher end indy to get it programmed. If it isn't, you need to buy a transponder/fob. I believe you can get that from keys-in-the-post also. Either way, you probably need to have the car programmed for another key.
