Hi Jodi, My name is Randy and I'm going to try and help you with your problem. Your anti-theft system is what's called PassKey this is the reset procedure.....Before you attempt this you must have a fully charged battery. 1.) Turn Ignition key to On position and attempt to start the engine, If it doesn't start release the ignition key to the On position. 2.) Security light will illuminate, Wait 10-12 minutes until it turns off. 3.) Turn the Ignition key off for 10 seconds. 4.) Try and attempt to start the engine, if it does not start, You will need to follow procedures 1-4, 3 times. Hope this helps and Good Luck, Randy.
