Default Need help trowing code P1626

P1626: Theft Deterrant Fuel Enable Signal Lost

Pretty much means i cant start my car . Has anyone had any problems with this code and what was your solution? I had to manually jump it b/c i was stranded 40 miles from my house which really sucked. I found this www.gearchatter.com/viewtopic8961.php but i dont understand what the hell its saying b/c like step 10 is saying change the PCM?

Does the car crank over when it acts up? Or does it crank, but not start? If it doesn't crank over, then you probably have a lock cylinder problem. If it cranks but won't start, then you probably have a Body Control Module problem.

You only have half the codes. Need to pull BCM codes as well to see what it says as well. Probable lock cylinder issue. BCM failures are not as common.
