I have the same thing. Is you fuel indicator showing you how much fuel you have even though the key isn't in the ignition? Mine is.

Pull the negative battery cable for about fifteen minutes ! Make sure that the key is in your pocket , not in the car ! And make sure that the doors are not locked ! You may need to reset your key fob after this ! To reset the key fob , turn the key to the on position 8 times, the 8th time leave it on ! it should have activated the locking system! if it did not try it again with the doors closed ! Now push door lock on the key fob to lock and unlock ! Did it work ? Turn off the key now ! Your key fob is now reset !
