Hello,
I have a 97 Monte LS 3.1. It stalled while making a left turn, started right up again and after going into a store for a few minutes, it started back up, stalled and the gas guage went to full.
I replaced the fuel pump assembly and starter. The car has spark, turns over but, the fuel pump will not turn on. I replaced every fuse in the car, tried new grounds from the old fuel pump harness,
and the pump will not turn on when I turn the key on. The car had an after market remote start/alarm in it. I took it out, reconnected all the wires that were sliced into the remote, and the car still won't start???
When the remote/alarm were in the car, the security light on the dash was constantly on. Now that the remote is out, the light is off when i turn the key on.
The other problem is, when I hooked up a code reader, it will not send a signal to it. What is the problem or problems? Where do I begin so I can get it running again???
I would appreciate your help on this one as I need my car.
Thanks,
Eddy

Did you check/replace the fuel pump relay in the engine bay fuse box?

No, I didn't. I am now thinking that when I had the remote start/alarm installed, I tried to start the car with it after the fuel pump was replaced.
I am wondering IF it bypassed or locked the GM security and it's causing it not to start??? When the remote/alarm was in the car, the security light was constantly on on the dash. The dealer that i took it to to have it inspected told me that, whom ever installed the unit bypassed the GM security, and that the unit needed to be removed but, I left it in and just removed the buld from the dash.

Yes I did and still no start. I am thinking that the GM security shut off the fuel pump, is that possible, and how do I reset the security or bypass it?

Yes, this is the wrong section. This should be in the technical section of the forum, and why are you responding to your own posts lol
