1998 cadillac deville wont start cause starting disable remove key message shows up. What can i do to to fix it

You likely have a faulty ignition lock cylinder or a problem with the body control module. For some reason, the vehicle thinks it's being stolen and has disabled the starter and the fuel system.

If your key has the resistor pellet with the short wires on both sides of the shank, I can provide a bypass method. Basically, you make a small resistor of ohms equal to the key, cut the passlock wires at the bcm, and solder the resistor to the bcm side of the wires. I have done this many times.

use the ignition switch master key. turn the ignition switch for ten minutes until LED ignition warning light go off.then turn off ignition switch wait 5 seconds then try to start engine. if this procedure starts your engine have dealership or garage to check out theft security system.

Usually means the chip in the key has failed, or the sensor in the key lock. Have you tried a spare key ?

If you are getting a starting disabled message, it's an indication that your security system is rejecting your ignition key. Your car is equipped with the VATS security system which requires a key with a resistor attached (small chip). Over time the sensor inside the cylinder will not recognize the key. Usually a new key will fix the problem. In more serious cases, it's the cylinder itself that's bad and needs replacement.

Hello, Just because the dash lights come on, isn't a good indicator of battery condition. The battery could have a bad cell. The battery cables where the attached to the battery could be corroded, if so they need to be cleaned with baking soda mixed with water. It could be a failed battery. You need to check each item. Does the instrument panel have any message stating car will not start, remove key for 3 minutes? There are many things that could cause your problem

Hello, You probably have failed (broken) wire(s) coming from the ignition lock cylinder to the security system. To repair you need to replace the ignition lock cylinder, a new key with the same resistor. no programming required. Hope this helps

this is part of the anti-theft system
you will need a scan tool to reprogram the key and/or computer

Replaced digital dash on 1998 Cadillac DeVille. Receiving error message 'Starter disabled keyless remote' 'Wait 3 min.' After 3 min, car still doen't start.

Read your manual or take it to the dealer. It sounds like it needs reset.....if this is a factory anti theft system, only the installer may be able to help you.
