Check your owners manual. Some of the newer vehicles have that for an anti-theft feature. If someone steals it, it will not work for them without a reset code. Sometimes you actually have to take it to the dealer and have them reset it. If it loses power for a while, it will lock you out because it thinks it has been stolen.
