2002 PT Cruiser CRD theft alarm light on

Out of the blue, the theft alarm light stays on when I try to start the car - this means the immobiliser kicks in and nothing happens! I presume that my keys no longer disarm the system - though they both work on the doors and the instrument panel lights up??

2008 Chrysler P T Cruiser. I recently replaced the starter and then my battery. I thought went dead but that isn't the issue. The car will crank but won't start.

Question edited for clarity. Spelling of 'Cruiser', and 'want' to 'won't', which is a contraction of 'will not'.
Question moved to model category.

By removing the battery, you activated the anti-theft system and engine immobilizer.

Put the key in the ignition and turn the key so that the [battery](/topics-battery-chrysler/) is on, but the [engine](/topics-engine-chrysler/) doesn't start. Quickly push and hold in the override button until you hear the alarm sound once, indicating the alarm is disabled.

I have a 2002 non turbo PT Cruiser with new zero miles engine installed. Engine will not run as computer is locked in Theft Mode. We never had an alarm system installed but I'm told the car is wired and...

The ECU is not reading the chip in the key. Replacing the ECU will not solve the problem. It is an input issue(signal to ECU) not an output issue ( signal from ECU). Perform an OBDII scan of stored fault history. Probably an ignition switch problem.

My car wont start but has Power

DOES YOUR CAR CRANKS OR IS COMPLETELY DEAD ONLY LIGHTS? IF IT CRANKS AND DOESN'T ENGINE RUN THEN IT IS EITHER THE ALARM ( IMMOBILIZER )SYSTEM ACTIVATED,OR THE IGNITION KEY FAILURE. IF YOU HAVE A SPARE IGNITION KEY TRY AGAIN ( THE KEY TO BE THE ONE WITH CHIP INSIDE ).IF IT IS COMPLETELY DEAD THEN YOU NEED THE ASSISTANCE OF A QUALIFIED PERSON TO DIS ACTIVATE THE ALARM AND CHECK ALSO YOUR SMART KEY AS WELL .

2002 Pt Cruiser No Start! Alarm?

This car is 15 years old. Personally, I have never heard of a vehicle that would do that. Try to find another vehicle that is newer. Nobody wants to get another vehicle, but it would be better than putting up with this problem.

Don't try start the engine when the oil light turn on, it would harm your piston, camshaft and crankshaft
It should be the oil pump has broken and need to replace, tow your car to the nearest service center
