Then it's not the steering lock and not a problem with the fob.

There is an interlock switch - brake pedal on 7AT, clutch pedal on 6MT - that can go bad and, IIRC, can cause your symptoms. You can check the switch with a voltmeter/ohmmeter. The Factory Service Manual (see link in my sig) has wiring diagrams, system descriptions, and diagnostic procedures that may help.
