remote auto locks don't work
i tried unlocking my car with the keychain button and it didnt work. it's not the battery of the thing cause after i manually unlocked my car i hit the lock button on the door and it didnt go either.
does this mean my car died? or is there only a problem with the lock system?
(i havent tried starting my car yet)

If your battery is good in your remote and your car, it's most likely going to be a blown fuse for your power locks. Depending on what kind of vehicle you have, the fuse block will either be underneath the dashboard or in the engine bay. there should be some kind of label that will say which fuse is which. For example, power locks may be PWRLCK or something of that nature. Depending on what type of fuse it is, you may be able to look inside it to see if it is blown. If you're not sure if it's blown, get a new fuse to compare it to.

I would try starting the car. If the car starts check the other accessories and see if they are working; lights, horn, radio, AC and anything else. See if the door locks with the switch on the door. If everything works the problem is the key fob.
If the car starts and some but not all the accessories work you most likely have a blown fuse. If the car doesn't start or crank at all you have a dead battery.
