Did you have the door open for a long time? If so the battery is probably dead. Charge the battery or try to jump start it. Doing this should get you back on the road.

be sure you have a charged battery. close all doors. go to passenger side door and lock/unlock door twice with the key from the outside this is the way to factory reset the oem security system
