Turn the ignition switch to the lock position. Turn switch to run position. The security light should light for 10 mins then turn off. When the light goes out turn to lock position for 5 secs. Repeat this proceedure 2 more times for a total of three cycles. turn key to lock, car should now start...

im sorry but it didnt work. now the radio only plays when u press the button to put the drivers side window up or down. occasionally it plays by itself. the drivers side window doesnt go up or down sometimes either. do u think there might b a shortage somewhere? or maybe the anti theft device is malfunctioning?

It is more then likely the damn anti theft device, I was having major electrical issues until I noticed my atd clicking and blinking whenever I started the car so I took it out and everything went back to normal.
