The start and shut off has happened once before on my 99 Silverado and it was the switch on the column. No security light and no codes. Tried a relearn but what everyone says is key on security light on then off. When I turn my key on the battery light comes. Did the 30 minute relearn and didn't work. Have seen multiple videos on how to bypass or try to fix. Checked the voltage at the yellow and orange wires, it is 5 volts, turn on key and it doesn't change so I don't know the resistance. Mine seems to be different than everyone else is describing but starts and dies after a couple seconds is what it does. Security light only comes on when door is open without key in the ignition. Second time this has happened and I don't care about the security system. Want to disable it without just cutting a wire and check engine light on all the time. Please help.

It is probably NOT a security issue. How is the fuel pressure? Possibly bad connections/corrosion in the underhood fuse box, check the connections on all the ECM fuses by removing them and cleaning the blades

it is possible, without cutting wires? no. You need to find the resistor measurement from you key cylinder when the key is turned, you said you watched a few videos. Find the resistor reading and install a resistor with the same reading (within 10%) and bypass the wires from the key cylinder for a permanent bypass. I have done it a few times for family while installing remote starters.

Just had a guy come over with a aftermarket tuning program an shut it off. Works great now. Find a local tuner, disable that ****** permanently with no codes.

    • 287,500 Mile Service   8/13/2026   Reset Fuel Trims   Since the work done in the previous post there was a good improvement in response in all areas except right after a fill up where the LTFT would go -20%+ for about four miles while the STFT was near neutral. Before the work they both went very negative for a few miles after a fill up but act normal thereafter.    We did a systems check of the vapor recovery system for functionality and ability to hold a vacuum. That checked out fine. But this doesn't mean the charcoal canister is dead in the water. Testing that is next up. For now the reset of the fuel trims.    I intentionally shorted the fill exactly two gallons to eliminate any chance of filling the canister. On start up the trims were behaving normally until I got up and rolling where the LTFT went -10 / -11%% but the short was + 2 to 0%. Within a mile the the STFT offset the LTFT and by 2 miles they were neutral. HUGE improvement but still not hunky-dory.    I'll watch them for a few days. Perhaps another tank where I will fill completely to 'first click' and compare. Meanwhile on the hunt for a new canister and I'll toss another purge value at it for good measure. Pending the outcome of the canister test that is. Progress of any kind is welcome.    Fuel economy improvement with bringing hole #3 back to the living was a noticeable bump to the positive. Even on the few miles I drove after the refill I already see another bump up by the trims reset.     She's purring like a kitten with a warm bowl of milk.     
    • Yeah, shame I can’t really get that filter easily anymore. Running a PureOne. Your fave!    TAN would be neat to see. Confirmation I ran it too long probably. 🤣
    • My son and I both bought new trucks in 2017. Both of us immediately put Truck Covers USA American Roll Covers on our trucks. My son still has his truck and it never sees the inside of a garage. We live in Alabama, so not much snow. My truck was my daily driver and was in the garage when I wasn't driving it or at work. No issues with either cover even after almost 9 years. About a year ago I sold my truck to my brother and bought a 2025 Silverado 2500. The second thing that I put on that truck was a new Truck Covers USA cover. They are very well made and have a very positive locking system. I looked at a Retrax and my concern was the way that the cover locked to the rail. BTW, the first thing I put on the new truck was step bars. Those new trucks are high!
    • The Allison 10 speed torque converter doesn't "lock up" like the previous transmissions. It has 4 operational modes; open, slip, transition from open to slip; transition from slip to open. I have an Edge CTS3 monitor and I monitor transmission torque converter slip. Step on the gas and you get a little slip. Take your foot off the gas and you get a little negative slip. I have not found a way to display the torque converter mode beyond that. My Edge CTS3 also displays something that our trucks should already display, the current gear. I also monitor throttle body position and engine load. If I see the engine load getting too high, I'll manually drop a gear.
    • Nice result. Your filter is working well  I'd have like to have seen the acid number for this sample. Curious type that I am.
