If you're having trouble starting your car, the issue might be with the ignition immobilizer system. This feature hinders thieves from starting your car in particular if they don't possess the correct key to start the engine.

If your car is a newer model, it is likely to have a digitally encoded key with an integrated transponder chip. When the key is put into the ignition, the transponder transmits an ID code to the ECU. understanding recognizes the code and activates the ignition and fuel system circuit.

These keys are more complex and have a more sophisticated engine immobilizer.

Keyless Entry System Problems
The majority of modern vehicles are fitted with remote keyless entry systems. When you press your fob to lock or unlock your car, it sends out an indication that disables the standard engine control unit (ECU) immobiliser. If the chip is defective, the car will not start.
If you get the error "Key not detected" on your vehicle, this is an indication that the battery of your key fob has failed. You can replace the button cell battery inside your key fob in a matter of minutes and the key fob will be able to communicate with the vehicle's system again.
Water exposure can also damage the key fob's electronic components especially in saltwater environments like a swimming pool or ocean. The key fob is fitted with rubber seals to protect the electronic chips from damage, but should the fob be submerged in water for prolonged periods of time, this can lead to the chip becoming fried and require replacement.
