1998 Pontiac Grand Am Two Wheel Drive Automatic 125000 miles

had problem with car acting like it wanted to start, but wouldn't. Had the fuel pump in the tank replaced. Problem still exists. Was told that it was the anti-theft device shutting down the fuel pump when we tried to start it. Is there a way to reset the anti-theft device?

Is the security light flashing? If so try this
GM PASS LOCK RELEARN- Ignition to "run" position, try to start and let key return to "run" position
Approx ten minutes security light will go off
Turn key "off" and wait 5 seconds
Repeat 2 more times for a total of 3 relearns.
Turn key off, then start it
