Slap it and it worked fine. Got new key from Needs and it is perfect. No problem since. The security id obviously wasn't working without being jarred so it would shut down. Thanks fo everyones help.
The security chip thingey in the key fob is not powered, so replacing the batteries would have no effect, however if it came loose inside the fob and migrated away from the sensor ring at the ignition switch, this could be the problem.
In your spare time, take the old fob apart and see if this is what happened.
