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????

i have found that disconnecting the battery didn't work for me. it might take repeating the process twice or 3 times. you have to leave the key in the on position for 10 min. and turn off then check if still on repeat and repeat again hope it will turn yours off. mine took 3 try.
i was told sometimes the transmitter goes bad and if this fix doesn't work then you might have to take it to dealer and diag. the problem and if need to be changed they have to reprogram it for you.

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?

take off the positive and negative cables from the battery terminals. Hold them together (touching each other or on top of eachother) for 45-60 sec. Then hook the cables back up to the battery. Your truck should start after that. Supposedly, this resets something. The tow truck driver showed me this just before he towed me to the nearest shop! I could have got RIPPED OFF BAD!

2014 Silverado 1500 LT THEFT DETERENT /stabilitrack
The dealership says that the stabilitrak fix or update has already been applied to my truck yet today it gave me a loss of control warning while on the interstate . Also the past few days the truck won’t start due to anti theft . It says to have it serviced. How does one have the anti theft serviced and also is it true a loose battery cable can affect this ? I had both issues right after getting this truck about 6 months ago and nothing has happened since until 3 days ago now it’s happening everyday . If the recall didn’t take shouldn’t they have to try it again ?
