It has went into theft mode. You will have to call a locksmith to reset the system or have it towed to the dealer.
Locksmith is much cheaper.
You need the dash gauges because the chip is in the dash that finds the key soupy need the gauges along with the matching ignition and key. Then the little flashing car on the dash with the key inside will go off.

I replaced 2012 Jetta lock housing and I attempted to put key cylinder back in and now it’s not turning or won’t come back out. Any suggestions
