To reinitialize the anti-theft system in a Chevy Cruze, you can start by disconnecting the battery for at least 10 minutes. Using a 10 mm socket or open-end wrench, carefully loosen the battery terminals starting with the negative one. Be cautious not to touch any metal surfaces while loosening the negative terminal to prevent any potential damage to electrical parts due to an arc. Ensure the battery terminals are positioned apart to avoid any contact. After the 10-minute wait, reconnect the positive terminal first, followed by the negative one. Be mindful not to overtighten the terminals as they are made of delicate materials. Switch the key to the on position to hear the vehicle cycling through various components, including the anti-theft system, indicating that the reset process is done.
