My 2000 chevy cavi's theft and service light is on . When I pulled up the code was for the theft kill to full pump and cant remember the other . Is there any way to deactivate the theft system in the car ? Any help would be appreciated .
disconnect battery/reconnect it?

Ummmm, I think you broke it.
i had the same problem w/ my car. when i swapped clusters the car would start, then die and the theft light came on. what i was turn the car on and let it die. LEAVE the key in the ignition but turn it one click back so its on the on position. dont turn anything on or open the doors or anything. the theft light will flash and then just stay on. sit there for about 10 mins and you'll hear the computer fixing itself. once that noise goes away wait for a min, turn the key to the off position but dont take it out. leave it there for 15 secs and then start the car. worked perfectly for me.
Passlock is slightly different between 98 and 2000 models, though. You're re-learning the R-code with that procedure. Can be done on the 2000 like that, but it has to be repeated three times for it to work.

hmmm.... ok i thought it might be different. i remember reading a post about how to do it and the guy said it may take 3 times for it to work.

That only works on the 99-'s, the 00+'s have a different type of theftlock.
