Depending on if you have the "pats" system. The chip in the key, you may have to reset the system. Try and use all the ignition keys you have. When you try and start the vehicle, look to see if the security light flashes fast. If it does, then the security system does not read the code. Disconnect the negative terminal on the battery for about fifteen moinutes. place the igition key on and try and start again. If that doesn't work you may have to go to the local dealeer and have the keys reprogramed to the vehicle. Good Luck.
