Hello,

You have no chipped keys in which to start your vehicle with? If this is the case you will either have to have a locksmith make you a chipped key and have it programmed to your vehicle's security system or go to the dealership and have them make and program the keys for you. There are no other options here.

Thanks,
Alex

Hello again,

I have included a much more detailed description of your vehicle's passive anti-theft system, from the vehicle manufacturer. Please go through these guides and keep us informed as to things progress.

Thanks,
