So this can cause a procedural error for the security system. I would try a reset process.

Here is a guide to help reset the system:

If this doesn't work let's run the codes with a CAN scanner. You can get a CAN scanner (Controller Area Network) which will work on most cars from Amazon.

Here is a video to show you how:
