Did you check your battery? That thing where you turn the key in the door to get the fob working sometimes help.

You should still be able to open the door. The keycode lockout is only for the immobiliser. Or did you mean you could get in but couldn't start it?

How are you entering the lock code, don't forget you have to turn the key to the lock position and back to center 4 times before entering the code

Looks like the mechanism is not connected to lock barrel

there are two rods connected to the latch. one from button, one from key barrel.
you have to open the door card and undo the handle, you will find out, what the problem is. small clip missing, which holds the linkage to lock barrel plate.
you may access the rod only by taking the handle off (losening a bit), but carefully, the mentioned plate is cast metal and breaks easily.
you can reconnect the linkage by using a simple hairclip, if you cannot find the original one.
