Default Can car start without audio/radio/security connect?

My 2008 IS250 can not start. I removed the whole set of audio/radio/CD/etc unit from the car. Will that activates the Thelt Deterrent system and prevent the vehicle from starting?

Thanks in advance!

It wouldn't hurt to try. If indeed it's in theft deterrent mode.
