how to clear anti theft/security light

Did you get this squared away? I am curious to see what you found when you looked into it.Installer, IT support, and FFL. I need less hobbies.

What is the state of the thin yellow wire coming down the steering column? If it is broken, cut, etcetera, that'll do it.......check to make sure that if you cut it for whatever reason, that it's connected back together securely. If you unsnap the plastic shroud around the steering column (it's a pain to snap back together, but you'll still want to take it off and check things)..........you should see a three-pin plug somewhere close to the keyhole, with probably a yellow, black, and a RED / white. Follow these three wires down the column and make sure they're all ok. I never unsnapped the plastic ring. The truck starts with the key just fine, it's just the light stays on. Would it start if there was a loose connection?

In short, yes, it would still start. ---Mess with the wires with the car OFF, and the system rightly assumes that someone is trying to steal the car, and disables the engine. ---Mess with the system with the car running, and the system assumes that it's not a theft attempt, but rather, a malfunction like a failed component or a loose wire. It then goes into what's called "fail enable" mode........the car can still start, but the light stays on, and there is no theft protection. The PASSLock II system will remain disabled until the problem is corrected. So anyway, follow the instructions above........inspect the entire system, temporarily re-wire the system back as factory (you don't have to solder or even tape, just use a jumper wire or whatever).......start the engine with the key, and the light should go out.
