so here is the deal. my car wont start because it dont reconize my key...

so i went to the dealer to reprogram my key chip
suprise! it didnt work
so the guy at the dealer told me it was probably the imobilizer or if i had a remote starter maybe it was that!

so i chek under my dash back home and suprise! there were a power start box and all the wiring for a remote starter with my gray valet key in the box!
here everything

the switch is to turn the remote start on and off, if you want it to work turn it on, i have the same thing in my car but not sure what the button is for

and did this happen out of no where?

is the immobilizer light flashing when you try and start the car? if yes then it should not have anything to do with the alarm/starter and the push button is for programming the remote starter.
