Best Answer

The ignition keys have an anti-theft chip in them. Over time the coating that protects the chip can wear out and the chip doesn't work. The anti-theft device in the car has to reset itself every time you try to start the car which can take 10 minutes or longer. You'll probably need to replace the ignition key at a dealership or certified shop.

What do you do if your 93 Pontiac Bonneville wont start after changing the ignition?

Changed the ignition?? The key tumbler? The switch itself? The parts under the hood? IF the key, was the part in the column in good condition. Did the key assembly seat properly? If the switch itself, it is adjustable to a degree and may not be in the right place. Under the hood? Depends of what was changed.
