If it's in theft mode the engine will start and run for about two seconds. It will do that each time you try to start it as long as you turn the ignition switch all the way back to "off" first.

Does your car have the factory-installed anti-theft system? If it does, try unlocking the two front doors with the key. If that only works from the passenger door, check for broken wires between the driver's door hinges.
