If you suspect that your 2011 Chevrolet Cruze needs an anti-theft reset, you might be in for an unpleasant surprise. A common reason for the anti-theft system "malfunctioning" is due to a faulty or worn-out key, preventing the car from starting. If you are certain that is not the issue, you have a few choices. You could reset the system by disconnecting the battery for about 30 minutes. If you're short on time, you can attempt to resolve the issue by pressing the lock button twice, then the unlock button twice. If these methods do not work, you can move on to the last option, which involves locking the car using the remote once, unlocking the passenger door with the key, and then pressing unlock on the key fob twice.
How can you perform a reset without using a key fob?
To reprogram the security system on a 2011 Chevy Cruze, start by opening the driver's side door. Then, press both the unlock and lock buttons on the key fob until the blinking light on the dashboard goes off.
