To reinitialize the anti-theft system in your 2011 Chevy Traverse, begin by pressing the panic button for five seconds and then pressing the lock button while standing 10 feet away from the vehicle. Next, press the unlock button twice to complete the reset process. This may be necessary after replacing or draining the battery, or if a malfunctioning passlock sensor triggers a system shutdown that prevents the car from starting. Various issues could trigger the system, which usually calls for troubleshooting or the use of an OBD testing tool to identify the root cause.
To reinitialize the security system in your 2011 Chevy Traverse, start by holding down the panic button on your key fob for five seconds. Then, press the lock button twice from a distance of 10 feet away. Next, press the unlock button twice. Your security system should now be reset.
I own a 2011 Traverse and the anti-theft light is on the dashboard, preventing the car from starting. I tried everything, including draining the battery and attempting to use the key fob, but nothing worked. Is there anything else I should consider trying?
