Security light on truck wont stay running
1998 Chevrolet Silverado 2500. Security light will not go off so I the truck wont stay running. I replaced the starter and now the truck starts but shuts down within a couple of seconds. The security light flashes then stays on. Tried to reset by doing the 10 minute intervals but with no success. Any ideas please help

- Momentarily rotate the ignition key to the CRANK position (Do NOT start the vehicle), then release it to the RUN position (Do NOT key OFF in the process).
- Wait 10 minutes. Observe the SECURITY indicator.
- The SECURITY indicator will transition from flashing to ON briefly to OFF after 10 minutes if remaining in the ignition ON position.
- Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position and wait for 10 seconds.
- Repeat steps 3-6 two more times. The new security code is ready to be communicated among the Passlock sensor, EVO/Passlock module and VCM/PCM. The new password is learned on the next ignition lock cylinder cycle from OFF to CRANK to ON (start attempt).
