I have a 2000 gmc Sierra. And it will start up for one second and shut right off. I reset the anti theft in it it'll run for 5 mins and shut right off. And trip the anti theft. I tried everything.. I even bought a new computer. It's still tripping the anti theft. I noticed the wire that goes to the haul bottom is ripped. Could that cause it to flip the anti theft.i need help.i don't know what else to do. I changed the ignition cylinder. The passlock. Everything in it. I don't know what else to do.

No the tow haul buttons will not cause the theft to set. Lets see what we can figure out. What codes do you have in the vehicle? This system is a pretty strainght forward system.

 

You have the Key which goes into the cylinder which is inside the Passlock. The passlock sends a resistance value to the Body control module which sends signal via Class 2 to the PCM.

 

So lets get down to the nitty gritty. 

 

If you just want the vehicle to crank and run and you're not worried about theft. Just buy a bypass (which is cheap) But if you want to we can run though the system and I will help you figure out exactly whats wrong.

Idk. I paid 750$ so far trying to fix the issue. At first I thought the fuel pump was bad so I replaced it then the sending unit.then the fuel filter then I looked. And saw the security system was tripped. I let my friend borrow the truck and he ****ed the drive shaft up someone how and I had to replace the drive shaft in it. Turned out my friend put a Chevy key in it and was able to start it somehow.. But it's a gmc. Anyways. All I know is I need to get it started back up. I believe the wires that goes to the passlock on top of the key cylinder are busted. So I might go down to the junk yard find the same exact wires and and buy it. So I can get that out of the way. I think the housing might just be busted. So I looked up online allot of people say just to soulder it. And it'll fix the issue. But in a'll honestly I just want to by pass it all. I live in the middle of no where I'm not worry about anyone trying to take my truck.

Bypassing the resistor check is a common action in Cadillac forum. Find the pair of wires that go up the column to the the resistor check of the cylinder. Cut below the dash. Measure resistance of the resistor on the key. Find a matching resistor(s) and solder the resistor(s) between the wire pair.

Also, if your friend used a different key, then it's likely that someone has already done the bypass. It's possible the bypass wire connections are failing.

This isn't a resistor key.

Sorry, carnau mentioned a resistance value being passed so I thought it was in the key. If there is a resistance value, then. . . . Well, I would be guessing. . . Never mind.:-)

      The Peckish Synapse

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built.

      2026 6.6 L5P oil cooler leaking oil at 4,000 miles

      By Brendan C · Posted

      New to diesel trucks. I happened to find my oil cooler leaking oil externally with only 4,000 miles on the truck. I didn’t realize this was an issue until I started researching it. Dealer is going to replace it under warranty but I’m wondering if there’s anything GM is working on to fix this issue. I’ve heard the oil filter used is the same as they use on their V6 motors and that’s what is causing the problems. Should I switch to a bigger filter or keep using the OEM recommended?

      Seems to be Missing a lot of Updates

      By Vu1can · Posted

      So, GMCustomerService:  Judging by the Update History pictured above, is this truck missing any updates that it actually needs. If it's just for the infotainment system, the radio is working fine and no trouble with SeriusXM. and Android Auto is working fine wirelessly with my phone. Some months ago, an update notice was sent to my truck. I approved the update and it finished saying that the update was successful, but it seems that whatever that update was, it didn't actually get installed - at least not if I'm to go by the Update History shown above.   So, again, are there any updates that this truck really should have? I've checked with my dealer but they're reluctant or commit to anything and if I want them to check, they require a $200.00 fee just to check it out and then I'd have to pay for the actual update(s).    Ignorance is bliss, and if none of the updates goes to fixing any mechanical discrepancies, I'll just leave things as is.
