If your 1996 Oldsmobile Achieva isn't starting due to a theft system issue, it could be due to the factory-installed anti-theft system being triggered. Try using the key in the driver's door to unlock it and see if that resets the system. If that doesn't work, you may need to wait 10-15 minutes for the system to reset before attempting to start the car again. If the problem persists, consulting a professional mechanic or referring to the vehicle's manual for troubleshooting steps may be necessary.

How does the Passlock System work on the Oldsmobile Achieva?

The Passlock System on the Oldsmobile Achieva is a passive anti-theft feature that disables the engine if an unauthorized key is used. It relies on a sensor in the ignition lock cylinder that detects the presence of a specially coded key. When the key is turned, the sensor sends a signal to the engine control module (ECM); if the signal matches the stored code, the ECM allows the engine to start. If the code does not match, the system activates the fuel cutoff, preventing the engine from running.

Install a new BCM. The BCM may or may not allow the car to start before you enable the anti-theft by setting a passlock value. If it doesn't you might have to choose between allowing the anti-theft to work normally and having a car that runs.
