1998 Chevy Lumina

I changed my starter and when I hooked the battery back up the car went into auto theft mode. Now when it starts, after a few seconds the car floods out and the anti theft light stays on. The anti theft does not blink on and off it just a solid color. Is there a way around this so my car will start. The chip is still in the key and I made sure it was cleaned. I even tried starting it and then turning it off and waiting for 20 minutes then tried to start it again. But still had the same results.
Can you help
Thanks
Kevin

The only thing you can do is have it scanned by a dealer. They are the only ones that have the proper test equipment.
