Is the theft light on the dash lit ? If so turn the key onto the run position till the theft light goes out, about 10min. Turn key off for a few min. then start , hope that helps. If not have to have it checked for codes in the (BCM) body control module or the (PCM) powertrain control module !
Same thing is happening right now on a 2002 Monte Carlo. When the key is simply turned to ON, all of the lights on the dash starts blinking rapidly. When I attempt to turn the car over, there is no CLICK or anything from the engine - nada. Ignition turns and the dash goes dark, as if it wants to TRY to start - but nothing happens. But, when I press the brake pedal (and the key is just sitting in the ON position), all of the blinking lights stops flashing and just stay lit. Therefore, I changed the brake switch, thinking it might make a huge difference. Didn't really help at all. When the key is turned, you can hear the fuel pump engage and everything seems to be ready to go. But, the car won't start (it will only start when it feels like it)...hit and miss, pretty much. Does anyone know the TRUE solution to this issue? Does the ignition need to be replaced in order to get this car to crank over
Is there a light that says SECURITY somewhere on the dash? These cars are notorious for failing anti theft systems that lock out the starter. This link explains and offers DO IT YOURSELF solutions.
When this happens, look for a light on the dash that says "security". If you see this, check out this link. That light indicates your problem. http://vatspasslockpasskeysecurityhelp.yolasite.com/
put in key in ignition, turn to ON position (do not start) leave in on position for EXACTLY 10 minutes. As SOON as anti-theft light turns off, IMMEDIATELY start the car.
this vehicle is equipped with a factory anti theft system if when you try to start the engine and the anti theft light is on then the starter won't start even if your check engine light is not on you would have to scan the body module to pin point the problem to see if it's the anti theft system or the starter, go to a auto parts store like auto zone or pep boys or western auto these store offer free scanning to there customers. if this information has been helpful please let use know good luck
