Check fuse #6. Swap the fuel pump relay with another identical relay under the hood. Pull the fuel pump relay. To pins should be grounded all the time. One pin should have power with the key on and one pin should have power with the key in the crank position.

SOURCE: 2000 pontiac bonneville wont start

It sounds like a bad connection somewhere, check the battery cable connections for corrosion and tightness, both ends. It could be the starter, starter solenoid, starter relay, neutral safety switch or ignition. Try moving the shift lever to the "N" position and see if that helps. When you say you have a dead key, do you mean you have no dash lights, (oil pressure light, battery light, things of that nature) no clicking, no nothing?

SOURCE: 1993 pontiac bonneville electric cooling fans relay location

Hi, check.........I need to know which fuse runs the cooling... on this forum thread. Its not a fuse if the fan turns but could be fan relay. Unplug the coolant temp sensor lovated just below the thermostat houing and see if the fans come on. If they do, it might be the coolant sensor that is bad.

It could be that you have picked up a batch of dirty fuel that has clogged the gauze input filter that is part ot the fuel pump inside the fuel tank.

Will a weak battery cause my 2004 pontiac bonneville to just shut down while driving down the road?

The Internet, though, has a large number of web sites where you can buy service manuals and schematics from bookstores, publishers, and other collectors. Here is just a sampling of
what sites are out there:

Factory Auto manuals

and Owners Guides on the internet. Our database currently

My 93 Pontiac Bonneville will not start from the key,if I jump it from the starter it starts up ,it wil run until I shut it off with the key and not start again.

If you have experience with wiring diagrams & are
willing to spend the money for them,you can test your
way to success

If not, then a repair shop,if you have no
vehicle or electrical skills

My car doesn't stay started it will run a little bit then quit while in the process of driving? When I let it sit for a min before starting it again it will turn on and I am able to drive a little way

Go with failed fuel pump, until you know how to test it.

It is seizing up mechanically or electrically

Check things HOW?

You need fuel pressure gauge,volt meter,oscilloscope
& such, to do testing,as well as wiring diagrams

1993 bonneville se will not start. the panel lights come on but it will not turn over. good battery/starter...help!

Try the connection's to the battery, they might be loose, also check the wire from the starter to the battery . One more thing I can think of, is the factory installed security system. Try unlocking the driver side door with your keys, and hold it forward for about 10 seconds.

I have a 1993 Pontiac Bonneville SSE 3.8, I tried to start car by using a screwdriver in the ignition and now my car wont start it started by jumping the starter but wont stay running. Now I have a set of...

What you need to do there is to turn the ignition switch on and off three times, leaving it on the third time. Leave it on for about fifteen or twenty minutes and the light should become steady. then you can start the engine. (I usually put a jumper battery on it to make sure it does not knock down the battery too far) If that fails to work, then the problem likely is in the switch or the security module.

The check gage light and service light stays on and the battery goes dead and stalls when its running

First check the alternator output...that can cause all of these symptoms...A free check at your local Parts Store...Should be above 14 amps...Hope this helps.
