At this time, you only need to use the key to unlock it. Generally, aftermarket keys do not have very good recognition. Simply disconnect the power for 10 seconds and then reconnect it. Then, disconnect the negative terminal of the battery for a while, wait for the engine's protection data to be cleared, and then reconnect the battery. If the engine is locked due to a collision causing it to sink, you will definitely need to repair the car. Once repaired, the lock will naturally be released. If the lock is caused by replacing a system-certified component with a non-system-certified one, it is recommended to go to a 4S store or a qualified repair shop for unlocking.
My over a decade of driving manual transmission experience tells you that starting a manual car in a parking lot isn't complicated. First, find a level ground to park and firmly engage the handbrake. After getting in the car, the first thing is to press the clutch pedal all the way down, then insert the key and slowly turn it to start the engine. If the steering wheel is locked and won't turn, don't force it - just gently wiggle the steering wheel left and right to unlock it. After starting, remember to check that all dashboard lights are functioning normally, then gradually release the clutch while giving a bit of throttle for a smooth start. Parking lots are crowded with people and vehicles, so safety is paramount - always check your mirrors thoroughly before starting to ensure no people or objects are around. If the engine won't unlock, check if the key battery is dead or if the anti-theft system is stuck - usually trying a spare key solves the problem. Don't rush to move off; stay alert to avoid accidents.
