SOURCE: 1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue security light on/power only sometimes

I don't know about GM, but some Ford have a interlock type system that will not let the car start untill the security system is deactivated by the remote. If you have the remote then try hitting the unlock button a couple times with the doors shut and then try starting it.

SOURCE: We need to reset the computer on a 2003 Oldsmobile Alero

HI there if the scan tool you are using will not reprogram the theft module the try the 10 min relearn

  1. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
  2. Attempt to start the engine, then release the key to ON (vehicle will not start).
  3. Observe the SECURITY telltale, after approximately 10 minutes the telltale will turn OFF.
  4. Turn OFF the ignition, and wait 5 seconds.
  5. The vehicle is now ready to relearn the Passlock™ Sensor Data Code and/or passwords on the next ignition switch transition from OFF to CRANK. Important: The vehicle learns the Passlock™ Sensor Data Code and/or password on the next ignition switch transition from OFF to CRANK. You must turn the ignition OFF before attempting to start the vehicle.
  6. Start the engine. The vehicle has now learned the Passlock™ Sensor Data Code and/or password.
  7. With a scan tool, clear any DTCs if needed. History DTCs will self clear after 100 ignition cycles

SOURCE: car wont start has power has fuel and starter

The security system is activated. It kills the injector pulse ( signal) and on some modles the starter. You will need to try to relearn the system. First try to start the car, leave the key in the run position for 10 minutes. Cycle the key off, then cycle it to the run position again for 10 more minutes. Cycle it off again, then back to run for another 10 min. after the last cycle turn it off then try to start the car. It is a 30 minute relearn. If this does not work you will need a repair shop to replace the passlock sensor. Good Luck

Testimonial: "it was in the ignition and the security activated i had to replace the whole igintion key and all "

I put a new radio in my 1998 Saturn SL2 and now it wont start. The starter clicks repeatedly. What's the problem? Someone said the security system my need to be reset. If so, how do I reset it?

If the starter rapidly clicks when the key is held in the crank position than the battery is low on charge. This may have happened if you had the doors open while installing the radio and the dome light/interior lights where on. Try jumpstarting the vehicle. If it starts drive it for at least 1/2 hour before shutting it off. That should give the alternator enough time to charge the battery for the next time you start it. If you have any questions let me know.

Car wont start. doesnt turn over. battery good replaced starter still having same problem

I just had this problem with my 2002 Grand Am. The problem was not with the battery or starter. It was the security system. It had to be reset. The garage said that they turned on the key and left it for about 20 mins until the light started to blink then started the car. They don't know why this happened, maybe the remote start? Hope thid helps. Dolores

1995 Buick Lesabre: security blinks and car will not start

If the starter is turning the engine, try re-setting the security system (leave key on till light stops blinking.) If the starter does not turn, you may have some success in re-setting system, if not you need to check battery voltage and voltages in starter system till you find the problem...can be something as simple as a bad connection at the battery. If you need help with further testing, just ask.

95 hundai accent wont start

The wiring diagrams for the 95 Accent do not show any OEM (original equipment manufacture) 'anti-theft' systems.... this does not preclude the possibility that an After Market system was installed.
