    Security Light Blinking-wont start!!

    My car wont start, everything on it works fine. I try to turn it over and nothing, just the security light keeps blinking. I just replaced the lock cylinder on it so i know thats not it. And its been like this for like 3weeks. Any ideas?

    did the dealership do the lock or did you do it yourself? It has to be matched up ohm wise to the vats module if you did it yourself. If the security light is still flashing I would tend to think that might be the problem. If the dealership done it I would give them a call and see if they did that. I couldn't tell you how it's done except it probably requires a tech 2 to do it.

    I was assuming you got an entire new ignition with a different key. Correct?

    did you double check the pellet to your old one to verify they're the same?

    Put an ohm meter on each of the chips and make sure they read the same.
