Check the vehicle is in park correctly. The anti theft system will not stop the key from being removed from vehicle.

PASSWORD LEARN PROCEDURE
NOTE:Password must be learned when IPC or ignition switch is replaced.

Attempt to start vehicle. Leave ignition on until THEFT SYSTEM indicator turns off (approximately 10 minutes). Turn ignition switch off. Attempt to start vehicle. If vehicle starts, password is learned.
