I got to work and shut the car off and read a message "turn car on now or key required." I started the car and it worked fine. I checked and had the key in my pocket. Not sure what this message means. Anyone else ever see it?

just means your car will not start in 10 days.

Simply means to turn car back on, drive home, take the day off.

Six very helpful suggestions so far.:lie:

The battery inside the key is about to go dead?

IDK it sounds like maybe the car and fob are not sync'd properly. So the car prompted you to verify the key that it sensed was the one programmed for your car.

Could be in the manual, such as troubleshooting section.

What if it means some moron is trying to hack your fob or program their own in the parking lot? :doh:

I've heard the urban legends about people hacking the door lock/unlock fobs over the airwaves...:paddle:

I've heard about this. That's what insurance is for. I think I would be more impressed if the people I live around actually knew how to do this than pissed off.

Be kind of hard to get very far with a stolen car on an island, no? :lol: Just noticed your location is Hawaii...
