Can't Open Doors Manually...Suggestions?

[pearccol]

I have read on this forum and others of how the Boxster remote locking will "go to sleep" if not used for 7 days. Most posters recommend opening the car manually, starting the engine and the system "wakes up" again.

BUT what do I do if the key does not manually open the door, it turns both ways but does not unlock the door?

A couple of other people mentioned the same problem but ominously there were no helpful suggestions. Hopefully someone has a simple and inexpensive solution!!
