Battery went dead, boosted vehicle off ran good until I turned off again. Now will not start even with new battery starter checked and good. Security light on and lights flashing.

We need to run through the disarm process to try and get that light to turn off.

That means we need to use the key fob and unlock the doors, the key to unlock the driver door, or the key needs to be put in the ignition and turned to the on position for up to 30 minutes.

Here is a guide that will help with this issue:

If all this fails then we need to check codes and see what is there.

Please run through this material and let us know what you find. Thanks
