Default Having an issue with my C53

I installed the steering column bypass but the car is still throwing the code on the dash pull the key out for 10 seconds but if I do that this time the car is fine I just have to do it every time I start the car we're before when it through that code I tried removing the key for 10 seconds but it wouldn't get rid of the code and the car still wouldn't move so I'm just trying to figure out how I can get this off my Dash it's just kind of annoying to have to go through this every time I start the car thank you

I have had similar issues. My recommendation is to check BATTERY voltage. Take a voltage reading between the two posts. If it not 12.6 volts charge the battery. Do not rely on the DIC voltage reading as that is alternator output. The starting sequence is voltage critical and you need this voltage to properly pass the start sequence. I would also have my battery checked on a machine. Start here and report back please. Good luck
