Next time you start is see if your security light flashes, the red light above the fuel gauge.
If you had a key made at a hardware store or something wont work. You have to get a chipped key.
If not your anti-theft system might be bad.
Also there are wires going from your key cylinder to the theft system. If they are grounded out of severed that could be your problem but I guarantee thats your issue
Both keys I have are original. I have never had one made. If it was the security issue then wouldn't throw a skim cel? My red light does not flash at all.
