Just that. Tried mine and the spare and they’re not unlocking or locking. Had no issues this afternoon with it. Will it just be the cold? It’s minus three here. First winter with the new car!

Mine has a physical key to operate the doors but no where to them insert to start ignition Confused

Have you looked at the manual? Ours is hidden in the handle. They are not always obvious now. Designed not to be seen.

Is there a key hidden within the fob? Sometimes you can flip or pull it out.

There is usually somewhere well hidden you can insert it if the key fob dies completely, but you'll need to remove a cover off something. You would need to look at your car manual to find it.

Mine said last night that the battery was low for the first time ever so perhaps it is temperature related.

And mine didn't say it this morning
