I accidentally washed my car key and all the functions work ie unlock and lock doors and the trunk opens, however, my car won't start. Did I damage the chip inside? Thanks in advance.

I am assuming the motor cranks but it wint start. If this is the case then perhaps the passive chip inside
has been damaged or may just need to dry out . Try drying with med hair dryer or put the whole key in a cup of uncooked rice to dry it
