Question P1673

I have a 2001 Land Rover Discovery II SE that I bought wrecked, which I can't get to start. It came with one key/fob combo, which does work to lock and unlock the doors, but it won't start. I hooked a scanner up to it a while a go and it threw a code (P1673) which says :Anti-Theft Alarm serial link fault Drive cycle A:Signal out of range - above maximum. My interpretation of this is that they key is not programmed correctly. I rented a U-Haul trailer and hauled it out to the only dealership that I am aware of here in Utah, after I called them the morning before it went out to tell them that I thought that the problem was the key, which they told me over the phone was very likely. When I got there the first thing that they told me was that it is no possible way the key, because it is not programmed. So they ran a diagnosis on the thing and said, in their writing: 0 Diag. No Fuel Pressure good fuse & relay-estimated fuel pump.

Fast forward 2 weeks. Today I hooked the scanner up to it and it threw 3 codes. P1668, P1673, & P1230. Cleared it, tried to start it and it only threw P1673 again. So does anybody out there know what that code actually means? It's not getting spark, checked that, and the fuel pump is not kicking on, which I know is good because I was able to override it and hear it kick on. To me it sounds like it is not recognizing authorization from the key. If you have any input, please let me know.

P.S. This is my first LR, and just trying to get it to run I understand the love/hate relationship with them already!

First, never post a technical question in an introduction section, if you want replies, post this in the Discovery 2 section.
Sa for you problem, try locking and unlocking the door 3 times to see if that will reset the alarm.
Send me your number and I'll call you today with some ideas.
