Broken Keys
After a few years of use, it's not uncommon for keys to break. If your key is damaged in the lock, you'll have to purchase a new one. If the rest of the key is in good condition you might be able to repair it.
A paperclip can be used to grasp the broken piece from both sides and push it out. If the broken piece is not trapped too far in the lock, you could try using a pair pliers. If the key is broken very close to lock, you may need a "key extraction" tool that has an elongated bar with the same barb as screws. The bar is installed into the locking mechanism, and then rotated to dig the barb into it. This will allow you to remove the key.

The buttons can also wear out, which is another common reason why a keypad stops functioning. When you press the button on your fob the contacts inside send signals to the receiver inside your vehicle that indicate the actions you want the key to perform. If these contacts are worn out and damaged, pressing the button might not function properly or it could send different messages than what you wanted to.
One solution to this issue is to make use of a physical key to unlock your car's doors and start the engine. You can reset the fob following the instructions in the owner's guidebook of your car (check online for specific instructions).
If changing the batteries or reprogramming doesn't work, it could be necessary to replace or repair your key fob. Modern keys must be programmed using your vehicle's Vehicle Identification Number. Wear and tear could cause damage to this program.

The car's device recognises the code and knows it's you. The engine won't start if the device inside the car doesn’t recognise the signal. This is a security measure designed to stop thieves from hot wiring their vehicles and driving them off.
The chip doesn't have batteries, so it doesn't need to be charged or replaced. It must be programmed by a person who has access to the ECU of your vehicle. This is why you should take your key to an expert locksmith.
Transponder chips are available in various varieties however the most well-known are Rolling Code and Crypto. Key blanks are constructed of plastic with a slot for the glass ampoule or transponder. It is then slid into a sleeve or carrier on the side (or bow) of the key. Here is a photograph of a sleeve holder from an Ford Key. You can take the transponder from a broken key by using the PVC ratcheting pipe cutter or other method to remove the sleeves.
A standard transponder key is more expensive than a regular metal key because of the chip but is less expensive than a fob or smart key. The cost of these keys varies on the model and make of your vehicle.
