Hey guys ive been having this issue starting my car for awhile, i recently broke my key about 2 weeks ago replaced keys and lock cylinder , they could only program one key said it was possible that the , ring transceiver is not picking up the spare, so replaced ring transceiver today still is having this issue , even before replacing the keys and lock cylinder this is an ongoing issue. Issue is mainly while opening driver door manually with key the theft light on cluster flashes,headlights flash rear module in trunk clicks, and will not allow me to start the car. I have to play with steering column and , lock and unlock door with keys to get it to start . If I leave the be car unlocked it'll start everytime, I've checked all fuses and relays they are good. Has me leaning towards short in column or pats module being bad
