when the chip on the key goes bad the car will start sometimes and sometimes it wont start, when it starts it will shut off minutes later 5-30 mins later, some cases it will take longer. The anti-theft light will come on ones the car shut off and in other cars it will be an invalid key sing and ones the car shuts off it will not start unless you leave it alone for 15 to 30 minutes with the ignition switch on the off position. In most of the cases this means you have a bad key ship and that you need to make and program a new key, call different places and you will get a deal sometimes, papalocks will charge $145 for making and programing the new key, yeapp its too expensive but they will come to your house.
