Security

The security light came on yesterday and stayed on . Any ideas what is going on and what I need to do to take it off.

Sometimes I understand hijacking if it has something to do with the existing thread, but your question has nothing to do with security.

This was from left field, start a new thread.

As to original poster, try cleaning key with alcohol. If this doesnt work, try cleaning grounds (see Bill Curlees post). Also try pulling up your codes.

I would suggest piulling the diagnostic codes to see if any are being posted - if so the codes should help you isolate the problem...

That would be a good first step. Hope that's all it takes.

Well I cleaned both of my keys. Security still stays on.
Pulled codes had several with past ABS problems that ended in H. Had one that had 40 BCM B2723 HC.
I tried reset. Security still on.
Any more ideas?
