My old ignition cylinder went bad. I replaced with new cylinder went to start it it cranked over but shut off. I tried again and the same results. Now I do not get anything but lights. It will not crank at all. My anti theft light in my dash stays on while the key is in the on position. Is there any way to bypass or do I have to go to the Dodge dealer and get a new ignition?

I have never heard of a 0.5l engine.
Did you get the new ignition key programmed?
As far as the no crank now, check your starter fuses, the #9 and the #23 in the integrated power module, located under the hood on the left front side (drivers side).

There is no 3.5 either. Plus there is no three cylinder.
The four cylinder is a 2.4 and the six cylinder is a 3.4.
Nonetheless, Did you get the new ignition key programmed?
