I was putting air in my tires at a gas station. Had to get back in and back up to get to all tires. No issue there. However, when I got back in to leave my security light is flashing and it won’t start.

Hazard lights still work, but but interior lights flash when I turn them on. Locks, key fob, etc, don’t work. If I turn ignition on security light stays on. If I turn key backwards security light flashes.

Hey DAVE32,

Did you leave the ignition on whilst pumping up the rear tires.
It is possible if the ignition was left on for a period of time that the battery has gotten low.
Did you attempt to jump start?

We have a guide for resetting the security system, please follow the link below:

Let us know if this works for you, if not we can run you through further testing.

Regards, Joe
