I asked the service advisor...and (taking what he says with a grain of salt) he says that the car and the key could have lost being married, and the theft-deterrent system has kicked in. Definitely sounds plausible. He wants me to have it towed in.

I told him that I'd need to exhaust all other possibilities first.

Yeah, after researching a little more, it does sound like the theft deterrent system. I haven't got my trailer yet, and I don't trust any towing companies. I'll call the sales manager. Maybe they can make a house call for me???

Thanks again everyone.

I'm going to take my time on Saturday and make sure all of the wiring harnesses are correct. Keep the suggestions coming though!

bmbbl be · 04-06-2012, 09:12 AM

these are the codes that came up ,,,when it was towed to the dealer

P0315 AND P0633 crank position system and immobilizer key -not programmed

I havent checked on my car and when this happens the vehicle will spin over and not start at all but have you thought about fuel pump inertia switch? You had the front end taken apart correct? There are usually sensors to trip the fuel pump in a crash. Just another thought.

That's the strange thing. He's not getting any codes.

Yes I had/have the front end off. Are these the two sensors on either side of the radiator? I assumed these were impact sensors. I had them disconnected, but didn't modify the wiring on them. They are connected.

Yeah...codes would make this too easy.

After fixing the ground on the alternator, I also checked all of the other ground locations.
