Immobilizer issue
danzigfan:
Hi guys, it has been a while...For the second time in two weeks it happened that EML started flashing without stopping when I put key and turn it to position before crank. If I try to start the car, it cranks, bit doesn't start.
Solution to this is to take the key out, lock/unlock the car and then it's fine. No EML flashing, starts on first turn.
Is this just a presign of troubles to come?
Any fix for this before it becomes serious?
Thanks in advance, Stan
Doctor Gollum:
How many GM keys on the ring?
danzigfan:
Only one came with the car. I do have another copy made later. Is it key transponder issue?
johnnydog:
Long story short, but I had this a couple of years on my 2.6. A replacement crank sensor didnt help. Initially it was just intermittently, but eventually the car would not start at all, and the dash lights were illuminated like a Christmas tree. A replacement engine ECU cured the problem and it was fine afterwards.

Well...now I'm really sorry I didn't pull ECU out of my 2.5 when it went to the scrapyard
