The key recharges any time the key is in the ignition and engine on. It takes a while like hours to fully charge if dead but the charge lasts a long time it's not likely the fob battery is dead. Do you have two keys?

I've got another key, but it's just the grey one without buttons (see photo below). It unlocks doors and can start the engine.
Deprogramming feels a bit unlikely, as the remote was working fine last week and I've removed/changed the battery several times before.
Unless this is all related to some mysterious electrical problem that even affects the key!?
