Check the Battery: Make sure the vehicle's battery has sufficient charge. A weak or low battery can sometimes cause issues with the theft deterrent system. Consider using a battery charger to ensure the battery is in good condition.
Use a Spare Key: If you have a spare key, try using it for the relearn procedure. Sometimes, a faulty or damaged key can cause problems with the transponder system.
Inspect Key and Ignition Cylinder: Check the ignition key for any signs of damage or wear. Also, examine the ignition cylinder to ensure there are no obstructions or debris preventing the key from being fully inserted.
Verify Relearn Procedure: Double-check that you are performing the correct relearn procedure for your specific vehicle model. Refer to the vehicle's owner's manual or a reliable source for the correct steps.
Reset Theft Deterrent System: Try resetting the theft deterrent system by disconnecting the vehicle's battery for about 15 minutes. Then, reconnect the battery and attempt the relearn procedure again. Check out the images (below). Please let us know how it goes
