SOURCE: my 2000 gmc truck will not start. New starter,

I assume that you mean that the starter will not run. Do you hear the starter solenoid operate (click) when attempting to start? If so, using either a voltmeter or test light, look for 12 volt power at the battery side of the solenoid. If none or it disappears when the starter attempt is made, check the cables from the battery for badly corroded ends. Also, check the grounding cable running from the frame/body over to the engine block for damage. If you hear no click from the solenoid, look for power which should appear at the small terminal of the solenoid when starting. If you get power, replace the solenoid. If no power, then look for a blown fuse, bad relay, bad ignition switch, or any damaged wiring. Make sure the new battery is fully charged. Hope some of this helps!

2000 yukon starts but wont stay running

In the old days that was probably enough to take care of the problem but now there are injectors and pumps and sensors on the cam and crank shaft. You need to check those.

Removed the key from my 2000 gmc jimmy and the chimes saying the the key is still in it wont go off

Sounds like it in the key switch. Try to jiggle the key back and fourth to see if it will stop it

2000 gmc jimmy wont start

I also had this problem with mine. There's a main power cable that runs to the battery. The bolt was completely corroded, so there was no connection = no power to start the truck. Check that, it'll cost ya less than 5 bucks to fix.
