The car won't turn on and radio doesn't work because your anti-theft system has been tripped. You need to reset the alarm system before you can do either one.

With the key, unlock driver side and passenger side door, and the trunk. Remember use the key. Then turn the key to RUN or ACC position. That should reset tyour alarm system.
