It could be the fuel pump is unable to create adequate fuel pressure. It could also be the throttle position sensor, throttle body injector, fuel filter and any of a number other problems. Check for a computer code. If you don't see one, it might just be fuel related, since computers don't usually check for that.
fuel pump is the first place i would look
ALTINATOR OR STARTER. JUMP START CAR, TAKE POSITIVE CABLE OFF BATTERY,IF CAR DIES IT IS ALTERNATOR. GOOD LUCK
change fuel filter
Remove the battery and take it to a car parts store (kragen, etc) and have them test your battery. The process is quick and should be complimentary.
Ensure fuses are good. Is there injector pulse, fuel pressure, and spark? Has work been done recently? Is there proper valve and ignition timing?
Something is wrong with your 2000 Chevy Venture. Better information get's better answers.
Check the throttle position sensor or the idle control motor
The security light has a faulty fuse and needs replaced. The vehicle not starting unless boosted means the battery has a dead cell in it .
put your key in the ignition and turn it and hold it till it stops cranking. k.
Either because of tire pressure, bent frame, or needs an alignment.
The Starter, Is Bad.
Start with checking the bulbs andthe fuse.
There are literally hundreds of reasons why vehicles will not start. You have not given us ANY facts to go on.
I have a 2002 tb and my understanding if the ignition is punched the vehicle will not start, unless the person has the key no it can not unless it is towed.
it might have something to do with the transmition my mother-in-law drives with her over drive on 24/7 thinking it saves on gas but over drive shouldn't be used unless your going over 55 mph. my answer to you is to try having your transmition serviced
vandalize, venture,
I had this same problem with my 2003 Venture. The Cheverolet dealership told me that the cruise contol is directly linked to the brake lights. The simplest and cheapest place to start would be to check your brake lights...if they are not working, you will not have cruise control.
