1st shop didn't know - said it might be the ECU.

They recommended a 2nd auto electric shop that is the apparent local authority.

So I had it towed a 2nd time.
In about a half hour of receiving it I got a call back. It just had to go through a reset sequence ---
1) key on
2) disconnect batt - let sit a few minutes
3) connect battery
4) lock all doors
5) unlock doors

$32 - all is well
