thoughts?
when you say leaving it in the ignition, you mean you are driving it correct?

also, had you not been using this key for a while? generally with normal use, it should stay charged enough to lock and unlock the car. If the key had not been used in a while I would worry about the battery in it not being charged. Otherwise I would tend to think it was more the battery itself inside of the key has died and is unable to be recharged, rather than being a recharge issue.
