A couple questions to help diagnose:
1) are you trying to enter the "%" in insert mode, or are you
typing it in normal-mode?
2) if you are typing the "%" in insert-mode, it's possible that
for some reason it's been remapped. You can find out by looking
at the output from executing
:map
which may indicate that you have an insert-mode mapping for "%"
-tim
