This is a Code that has a few reasons to show. Most are in the Antitheft system. It can be a bad Keychip, bad Ignition switch or a Voltage problem for the security module.

Check some of the other things that should happen when you turn the car on. It can show that the ignition switch is off when it shows on and this messes with the Antitheft. Try an extra key, see if it works better,

My 07 chevy hhr wont start. It gives the code P1682

Causes of code P1682 are similar on all GM products and could include one or more of the following-
  • Failed, failing, or defective ignition switch (Most common)
  • Defective fuses or fuse box. Note that under some conditions, such as when the vehicle had been parked in the sun, the fuse boxes on some models would deform, which often caused wiring connections in the fuse box to break or lose contact. This particular issue is known to affect Chevy Trailblazer, GMC Envoy, and Chevy SSR models
  • Failed, defective, or malfunctioning PCM relays. Note that in cases where an ignition switch failure affected circuit 1, the reduced power feed to this relay often caused contacts in the relay to arc and burn
  • Failed, defective, or malfunctioning fuel pumps, as the result of ignition switch failures affecting circuit 2
  • Failed or failing PCM, but note that this code often mimics the effects of a failed PCM or corrupted software. Therefore, the fault must be sought elsewhere before any control module, including the PCM, is condemned
