It began with a failed remote start and several more attempts. We have figured that the theft system engaged. We have determined the fuel pump does work but the electronics are not letting power to be properly connected to it {anti-theft] ON A 2009 GMC SIERRA

i have a 2008 silverado. i just went to start it and the security anti-theft lock is armed on the truck. i can't start the truck at all. i called onstar to have them help me trouble shoot and they just told me to let it sit for 15 minutes and then try again with a spare key. that still didn't work. they say i have to have the truck towed to the dealer to have it reset. is there anything else i can do to get the truck to start????

Hi did you find that your remote starter was causing your "service theft deterrent system" message/issues? I'm currently having the same issue. My 07 suburban won't start with a fully charged battery. (Getting same massage: "service theft deterrent system").

Theft system
Try turning the key on until the yellow lock goes out on the instrument panel about 10 minutes. Turn key off and do it again 2 more times then after 3 cycles, pull key out and put back in and it should start.

Is there a recall on the 2007 gmc for the theft deterrent? My truck won't start and I have tried everything on this page to try and reset it. I think gm should have to foot the bill for this kind of hassle !

Service theft deterrent system
I tried this on my 07 Impala but didn't have much luck. I'm still having the same light on "service theft deterrent system". My car has been like this for about a week now. If anyone can help I would really appreciate it

I left the lights on my car last night and battery is dead. I have messed with it so much I think I've done something to the theft deterrent system. I cannot get the keys out of the ignition (yes we tried wiggling the gear shift & the steering wheel, etc.) My key fob does not work, I've pushed those buttons. I cannot get to the battery as it is in that back end of my car & I can't get the hatchback to open up (it's locked). Anybody have any suggestions?
