Starting failure
Chevrolet Colorado 2008 270 miles
Hello, my van's problem is that the engine starts whenever it wants and, when it doesn't, the anti-theft padlock appears and I have to wait for at least 15 minutes to start driving. The other faster way is to open the switch, disconnect a terminal and connect it intermittently many times, and it then starts. If anyone could help me, I would be really thankful.

What is causing your problem is the current inhibitor, which is a security anti-theft system. I recommend you to take it to the agency so that it is programmed together with your key. If it is damaged, the best thing to do is to replace it.
