Charge the battery up first, then start the car with the dead key and let it charge the car on a LONG run (could be low voltage and it has a 9v rechargeable battery in it that charges through the key barrel).

If that doesn't work try a re-programme (have a search on here). Think your battery is playin up but try the above first.
