My keys were stolen and then the car was stolen also. Then the car was found later and my keys were in it, but the anti-theft system had came on and now I can't get my car to start. I think another problem might be too it's a key-less entry and there was no key given to me when I purchased the car for the door just the ignition key. I've tried several different generic ways, for anti-theft system reset but it just won't work. I need to know if there's a specific thing I have to do with this car. Please I need your help.

Hi Mariposa,

It could be that the immobilizer has been activated for one reason or another depending on what events occurred when it was stolen.

Lets start here please read the article below:

Let me know where you stand after trying that.
