Theft light flashes real fast

Sounds like a PATS(passive anti theft system) problem...turn your key on then off quickly 10 times in a row, (on the 8th time you should hear your automatic door locks engage) and then after the 10th time it should start.

How many keys do you have? Do they all have the same response? If so , they're telling you to get another car (toyota)

I had same issue. The anti-theft thinks you are stealing the car. Sometimes it will crank but only if the light is flashing at a regular pace but if it is too fast then it will not turn over. Have a mechanic put a new ignition harness on it.
