Suspect problems with the BCM in my 2000 sonoma V6 4X4. Truck gave up wile driving, security light flashing on the dash. Tryed to by pass the Passlock II with a resistor between the orange/ black and yellow wire that comes out of the key tumbler at the colume. Matched the resistance after a test no luck, went thru the re-learn process on luck. Has the BCM failed?

Take your positive cable off battery and wait a few minutes..This resets the computer and takes it out of limp mode.Theres been a lot of problems in the dash so if you can find an auto zone and have them scan it They'll do it for free.But as far as the lights my truck does the same thing. Just flick your fingers on the buttons and they should flash..The plug in the back of buttons was loose..

SOURCE: Truck getting too much gas

Did you check sensors such as crank senors? cam sensor? knock sensor? or mass air flow? Could all be causing it to get to much fuel. Just had same problem on 1997 Chevy Lumina

2003 dodge 1500 wont start no power flashing red light in dash

That must be the security system. Check your owner's manual for a reset procedure. Most people will tell you your best bet is the dealership-only they have the electronic testing equipment and expertise to work on factory installed security, especially so if any reprogramming is required. I don't know if that's the case, the owner's manual may shed some light.

My 1997 GMC Sonoma SLS is stuck in park. I believe it is due to a failed stop light switch. Where is that switch located and how do I replace it. How do I by-pass that switch to get the truck out of...

The brake lamp switch is located on the brake pedal assembly under the dash. (See Diagram)

To move the vehicle, try this:

1. Turn the key to OFF.
2. Apply and hold the brake until the end of Step 4.
3. Shift the transmission to NEUTRAL (N).
4. Start the vehicle and then shift to the drive gear

Car is starting but shuts off

if the car starts for a few seconds and then shuts off look at the dash and see if the security light is on or flashing if so put the key in the on possition and leave it there for about 20 min and walk away then try to start it. this is a very common problem with the secruty system/anti theft systems in GM cars and trucks this system is called pass key or pass lock. if you have another key to this vehicle try using that and see if it starts if not and the security light is on and after a few times of the 20 min trick if the truck does not reconize the key you may have to replace the key and lock cylinder

1994 chevy impala will not start battery is charged

if the pass key light is flashing you may have to take it to a shop and have it diagnosed. i had this problem with my 98 sonoma. my problem was that the pass key sensor was bad. for some reason the car is not recognising your ignition key and is going into security mode. this one is almost impossible for the do it yourselfer unless you have a scan tool. (not a code scanner) this is how gm gets you.

Security light flashes

The security system (VATS/PassKey) is having problems, it's typical on those cars and it will gradually prevent the car to start anymore. You can find a great write-up here: http://newrockies.ca , this has been the only thing that saved my Park Avenue.

Air bag

When you first start the truck the air bag system does a diagnostic. The light comes on because there is a fault in the system. Needs to be scanned, I suspect they will find a problem with the front impact sensor. Either it was damaged, or the wiring to it was damaged when you went into the ditch.
