is using the wrong key, it prevents the vehicle from
starting. Anyone using a trial-and-error method to start
the vehicle will be discouraged because of the high
number of electrical key codes.
When trying to start the vehicle if the engine does not
start and the security light on the instrument panel
cluster comes on, there may be a problem with your
theft-deterrent system. Turn the ignition off and try again.

not damaged, try another ignition key. At this time, you
may also want to check the fuse. See Fuses on

key, your vehicle needs service. If your vehicle does start,
the first key may be faulty. See your dealer/retailer who
