did a vats swap....

Yes I did it correctly swapped the entire column and pass key module and I'm using the key that is compatible with both. the car was cranking and running fine (except for my fuel pressure issue) but the point is it was successful. Well I go today to start the car it turns over for a split second then nothing. It will click if I hold the key to the on position after a few seconds. Its throwing a code 46 which is vats related but the security light goes off. what the hell?! the only possibility is the chip is kinda worn.. but could it cause a code 46? any help appreciated
