P0513 Dodge -my car wont let me start and drive

Question

my car wont let me start and drive my 2008 dodge avenger.

I unplugged and replugged (has picture) this module next to the ignition switch. nothing happened but when i went to turn on the car, it immediately turned off.

i have an elm scan tool and it read trouble code P0513 Incorrect Immobilizer Key. I havent changed keys or anything. i just unplugged and replugged that module.

does anyone know how to reset the car or make the car read my key for i can drive to work again?

Answer 1

P0513 Invalid Skim Key

For this condition  is where the PCM detects a invalid key, Dodge has a Campaign for this condition , it is listed as a recall  # G42, What happens when you get this code condition besides disconnecting the module is electronic static discharge from the ignition key to the control module, You can try this in the engine fuse box remove the IOD fuse with the key out of the ignition wait 30 seconds and reinstall, If you cant find the IOD fuse disconnect the battery, for thirty seconds see if this starts it.
