2002 Chevy Malibu Reprogram New Key

Landy’s question:

My 2002 Malibu had the key stuck in the ignition and it wouldn’t turn. So I put in a new ignition tumbler and key. The car started, then died. Now it won’t start and the theft system is flashing. What can I do to get it back starting again?

Answer:

Try to start the car, then release the key. The Theft System light will blink. Then just leave the car for about fifteen minutes. Then turn the key off for 10 seconds. Then restart the engine and it should work. This is just how you reprogram it to work with the new key and tumbler.
