Immobilizer issue
TheBoy:
Is the only issue flashing EML and no sign of it firing?
If so, its likely to be either the transponder in the key or the pick up ring around the ignition, but worth checking the integrity of the loom around the immobiliser ring.
You'd be very unlucky for it to be the main engine ECU, as these are virtually bomb proof on the 2.5 and 3.0
(2.6/3.2 are pretty reliable as well, but not quite as good as the older ones)

If there's more than one key for a GM car on the key ring, then the transponder may be getting confused.
TheBoy:
Defo worth trialling a 2nd key if you have one. Not on the same keyring as DG says.

No, second key is nowhere near the key ring...It ruins the purpose of second key🤷 I'll check the immobilizer ring when temperature ouside rises a bit. Second key was made by local locksmith, transporder chip was easy to duplicate and it was cheap to make. But it works.
First on to do list is leaking HBV tomorrow...priorities, then all the rest, neverending I guess
