If the security light is flashing than the security system is active. It has shut down the fuel injectors and will not let you car start. What you need to do is turn the key to the run position, do not turn all the way to the start position, and leave it there until the theft light stops flashing (10-20 minutes). Once it stops flashing turn the key to the crank position and see if it starts.

You may want to have a battery charger on the battery or at least turn off all the accessories so you don't drain the battery.

Security light flashing and car wont start

Your anti theft system has engaged. You can usually reset it by locking and unlocking the drivers door with the key. Unfortunately I am not a Chrysler expert, so am no help other than that.

Security Issue

Usually the flashing security light means the computer is not finding the right code in the key chip.
Is the key you are using programmed to the vehicle ?

How do you disarm infiniti i 30 security system

Please check that the key is paired with the vehicle's security system. If you have a spare key, then please try that too.
Is there a flashing key symbol warning light on the dash when attempting to start? This could mean that there is a pairing issue, and that the security system needs reprograming.

My 2007 silverado was fine when i parked it last nite..now it wont start..plenty of battery and lights..but no ignition..and the steering wheel is not locked when in park..it will not start in park, or...

The steering wheel will not "lock" until you turn it about 45 degrees from center...this is normal. If your security light is flashing, there is a problem with your security system that is keeping you from starting the engine. Try this: Set the parking brake. Turn the ignition to the "RUN" position and wait about 10 minutes for the security light to stop flashing. When the light stops flashing, crank the engine without turning the key to the off position. If it starts, take the vehicle to get the security system checked. If it doesn't start, tow it. You probably need a new PassKey sensor.

My 2007 tahoe security light came on and now my car wont start. Do you have any idea how to unlock the security? I have tried looking in my manual and no clue

It's the passlock system that is acting up.. I have the same problem at the moment but mines came from disconnecting my stereo system, the power wire sparked and toasted one of the computers. now the important thing is if the security light is flashing or is steady on.. if it is flashing you just have ti reset the security by turning the key to the on posistiona and wait about 10 - 15minutes and let the pass lock reset.. is it is steady on (no flashin):

a steady light means that you could have a Class 2 data circuit problem. It indicates that your "passward" from your key in the "passlock" is not getting sent to the (Vehicles Thieft Deterrent) thats inside your Vehicles Control Module. This shuts down your fuel log or injectors stopping the engine from starting. The vehicle might start, but then stalls after 4 sec or so.
It's like the vehicle thinks it's been stollen. That's too bad, if your light was flashing "and" your cycles were correct the car would have re-leaned the passward and started.
A problem could mean...but not limited to a open,shorted or grounded circuit....or a loose or open connector between these comunicating systems: SIP/PCM/VTD/VCM and perhaps the EBCM.
Security Insturment Panal
PCM - Passlock Control Module
VTD - Vehicle Theift Deterrent
VCM- Vehicle Control Module
EBCM - E Brake Control Module

you may have to have the dealer check and replace / but instead of passlock system you may have the Passkey 3+ system
