It happens from time to time if you use a key that hasent been properly programmed (invalid sentry key)

we see all the time where people go into a store (home depot for example) and place their keys on the counter next to the demagnatizing chingus and it whipes the memory out of the key and we have to reprogram.
just keep in the back of your minds when placing keys on a counter at a store.
