Yesterday, while driving, the brake and battery lights came on. This morning my car would not start. No clicking noise, nothing was working. Put the charger on it, it started but the factory alarm would not stop going off. I only have one key and no remote key fob.

Turn the alarm off with the remote key fob or by locking, then unlocking a front door with the key. The doors should be closed when you do that.
