you have to tow the car to the dealer they use a special tool to flash the computer its not a home job dealer olny Answer Try this: Put the key in the ignition, try to start the car (the car won't start), release the key and leave the key in the ON position for 10 min. during this time the security light on the dash should be flashing. After 10 min. the security light will stop flashing and shut off. Turn the key to the off position, wait 5 seconds or more, now start the vehicle.
change the crank position sensor
I had this same problem when i bought my cavalier. I had the ignition lock\key part changed and I changed the ignition switch myself and it worked fine. Now I have yet another problem.
To reprogram the alarm remote for a Porsche boxster, one must put the key into the ignition and turn to position 1, first click. After, you must then turn the ignition off and leave the key in for approximately 15 seconds. The last step is to start the car; this will successfully reprogram the remote.
keys have to be reprogram to the cluster
yes
Sounds like an ignition module....
so you replaced your entire steering wheel and switch and that did not work and was told you needed a starter. The starter was replaced and that did not work. Now it is the crank sensor and ignition module. Not sure of the symptoms, you were not spacific.... Maybe you just need to reprogram the Passlock Anti-theft system to recognize the new key. If you attempt to start the vehicle with a key that it does not recognize it will start for a second and then die, the injectors are disabled by the system. If the car turns over and does not start, I would guess that this is your problem since you changed out the ignition switch. Research the Passlock system. I am guessing you need to do a reprogram.
You need to take the dash apart to get to it. I had the same problem in my 2000 malibu. Are u having a theft system problem? I was. You need to take the ignition apart too. Your going to need to reprogram the new ignition lock cylinder with your computer. To reprogram just turn the key to the on position (dont start it) let it sit for 10 minutes, repeat this 3 times. It should be programmed now. Now start it.
all cars start of with matching locks/ignition and key so the ignition or locks must have been changed
Turn the ignition switch to the auxiliary position. Do not start the engine. Leave the ignition switch in the auxiliary position for 30 seconds. This will reset your alarm system.
Check if all fuses are working and see if there is any circuit short. Also check if the ignition switch is in a proper working condition.
If the car turns over, gets gas and just will not start try the ignition module. CAR TURNS OVER
