I believe he had problems with the coding in the computer so the old ignition is hanging there to appease the car for now until I can get a dealer to rail me on reprogramming it (I think it was the antenna ring that gave him trouble, something with vin numbers if I remember correctly). Not exactly sure how all of these electronic and security systems work yet as I just started researching today. Also, my key fob doesn't even have batteries in in right now. But it has ran fine for the last month since he passed it down to me, and oh what a troublesome month. A new battery is the most significant replacement I've made right now, other than that just light bulbs, a new front tire, and headliner rewrapping. I know all of that cosmetic stuff is non-relevant to the whole "start, don't start" problem I'm having but it gives a little justification to my "stupid car" statement, as she has been a little money pit I will disconnect battery cable tomorrow and try again so you can help me more to clarify it. Thanks guys. You have helped so much the past month!!
This guy had troubles with his SKREEM and tried a method to reset it. He had siren problems but it is SKREEM related.
I suggest you disconnect the battery reconnect it and try his method that he outlined in this post (click)
You have everything to gain
