This key now needs to be programed to the anti theft system, make sure who ever made the key knew what they where doing and gave you the correct key with chip, heres how to program the new key.
step1) insert old key in ignition and turn ignition on but dont start engine, after 3 seconds turn key off and remove.
step 2) Within 10 sec, insert new key and turn ignition on the same as before, security light will light untiul key is learned . when light goes out remove key within 10sec, of light going out, this may happen so fast you never see security light light up , so when light goes out remove the key, leave key off for 15 sec, then try it. hope this helps. note, if you wanted to program more keys you would just keep putting them in within 10sec of removing last key, following directions of step two. when done then turn key off for more than 15 sec, and the relearn is shut off,

Had locksmith come and cut new key and reprogram new and immobilizer still flashing key on dash please help

My friend you need a new locksmith!
Now you will need the assistance of your local dealer.The security systems in cars these days are VERY sophisticated. And 90% of the "Factory key replacements" available on the inter-web. Are NOT, I repeat NOT guaranteed to work. They say they back them. But they really don't. Probably not telling you what you want to hear. And I am truly sorry about that. I would defiantly give that locksmith a call. And ask for your money back. Or at least let him try to fix the problem.
I do hope this helped and your security/key troubles are remedied soon.

How would I start a 2000 2.4 litter Mitsubishi triton glx using a non coded key

Hi Russell, Im AL the owner of Big As Auto Repair.

Russell, you cannot start a security installed vehicle with a none security key. If you have lost your key to the vehicle then here's what you can do. Take the last 8 of your VIN Number and your vehicle to the Mitsubishi Dealer and they can cut and program a new key to the security module. NOTE: Another way to do this is to have the dealer cut a new key for the vehicle and then call around to find a lock smith that has the ability to program the key to the vehicle. NOTE: I would check to see which way is cheaper. To Tow the vehicle OR have a lock smith come to you. Hope this helps and please visit my auto-repair-website here: http://www.bigasautorepair.com/

I havw a 1997 firebird security light comes on and car won`t crank. Keyfob does nothing. Could it be the antitheft module?

Been there: had broken wiring in the key cylinder -- wouldn't read the 'chip'. Dealer dinged me for a whole assembly, meaning a new key-cut .. and new IGN keys !
Learned later that I 'could' have bypassed the chip-reader with $1.59 of resistors from RadioShack ..

1997 CADILLAC DEVILLE ENGINE CRANKS BUT WILL NOT START THE THEFT SYSTEM CODE FLASHES AND READ THE CODE TCS B1750 PASS KEY FAILURE CURRENT THE RESISTANCE OF THE KEY IS 7.5 KOHMS AND THE RESISTOR WAS CUT IN...

On the key there is a diode theat the key connects inside the cylinder lock from the lock cyclinder their is two white wires that thread down the collum to the maim collum connector.here they plug into the main harness. If this white set of wires is broken or cut anywhere or connected to ground then the security system won't let the car start. A new tumber comes with the white wires and the contacts that touch the key. I remove the new contact wire assembly from the old tumbler and install the new on that came with the new tumbler. I don't use the new tumber as I don't have a key with the diode in it thats right for the car. with the old key in the old tumbler with the new wire and contaacts all assembled the car should reconize the key and run like it used to,

No chip in the key

There is a  security resistor on the key and your going to have to get a new key from GM dealer and  it will come programmed right from the dealer. Once you have the new pass lock keys, your going to have to reprogram the Cars ECM to recognize the new keys and takes about 30 min. You can call a lock smith to come to you and he can cut new pass lock keys and reprogram the car and keys together where you are so you don't have to pay for the tow to the dealer. Good luck and hope this helps.
