I've finally found the cause of my problem. It was the Chevystar, which I always thought was desactivated until my van was blocked by it. I've removed the Chevystar and everything came back to normal.
It has been running well. Started up fine this morning. Got to my appointment. Came back out to leave and truck would not turn on. It was as if the battery was dead. When the AAA mechanic checked the battery it was fine. But the dash lights would not come no when the key was turned. Then they did but there was no effert to start. The engine might click but nothing else. The dome lights were bright and working. It was putting out a full voltage the mechanic said. But again the dash lights would not come on. But then they did again.
I am having same issue. Can you please tell me what was wrong with yours. I replaced starter and battery is good... All fuses are good and relays that' I know of. Help asap
I have a pulsar LT upgrade trip for my Silverado, and what I discovered when I was taking it to the dealership was I was taking a pulsar LT main chip in disconnecting it but really, I should’ve been disconnecting all the wiring, which is only two harnesses, and then connecting back the originals next to the colder intake so when you take the pulsar LT and disconnect is the main chip it deactivated the whole vehicle. I’m assuming it’s a safety precaution which is a great one Security is key
Won't start after long distance drive got spark let set for about a hour then it started don't know how to fix it can you help it dose have a new fuel pump in it
Try tightening the alternator belt. At highway speeds over long distance belt expands due to centrfical force and does not remain in positive contact with the alternator pulley.
My car started making a strange noise, as if it were a template's bearing or damaged band, but we've removed this last one and nothing changed. We've also opened the car's distributor and replaced the oil pump which was softly damaged, but again nothing changed. We've checked it with a stethoscope and the noise seems to be coming from the bottom. There was no overheating nor an oil failure, any help to give me?
Thanks for your comment, Delores. I tell you that we've finally solved the problem when we took the engine out and found three damaged propellers. We've then changed them and luckily the car is now working properly.
It will work good but start blowing hot air but the whole coil under the hood stays cold the top part and the bottom and the parts that runs to the air condition coil it don't need any freon and the fan works
I have a 2004 chevy silverado1500 5.3 will not turn over. When I turn key on it. Has power to every thing good fuel pressure,battery full charger good power connection everywhere but will not turn over I've jumped a wire from the starter solenoid to the hot post on the battery and it will turn over but still won't crank but when it warms back up above 30° it will start just fine i can't figure it out I drive it every day back and forth to work it really frustrating because it make me later for work during the winter
I've got the same problem. When she's cold she won't start. Everything seems to work fine b4 the crank. Other comments said ir might be an ethinal Water issue. I was hoping I could just replace the starter but once she warms up a bit there's no issues.
This truck runs like a top all summer and fall, in the winter no start, tow over, when we take it to the mechanic in a warm garage starts right up, drive it home, next day forget it. Have tested everything electronic nothing shows up on the diagnostic, have replaced everything known to man, ignition switch, plugs, complete overhaul kept up well and still nothing. Our other vehicle starts right up in the same cold temps...any suggestions? Showing Wife's e-mail below. New Battery. This vehicle is not a Chevy El Dorado don't know why it says it on my vehicle description...is a 2003 GMC Sierra.
Never reset my oil life indicator after oil change. Truck completely shut off driving 65 on highway... Performed oil life reset mey on gas 3 times... Still wont start. Motor turns over acting like it not getting gas...
I was pulling trailer and my brake system light came on then it died. It will not start doesn't even try to start. Brake system light is on security light and battery light is on. With key off all my gages and running lights stay on
Removing and replacing emc and starter fuses under the dash is a temporary fix as i don't frive it much due to initial stalling and then stall with system shutout, no power.
I've got a 2001 Silverado 1500 4.8l that's doing the same thing. I've tried resetting the security, and even by passing the security. Checking the fuel filter and pump tomorrow. My security light stays lit even after pulling key out of ignition and key fob isn't working. Tried to resync the key fob but my truck won't go into sync mode. I put the key in ignition, held the unlock button on driver door for about 5 seconds then turned ingition from off to on without starting it 2 times. The pressed lock and unlock button for over 30 seconds on key fob but never synced. Grr
As I start my car when cold, the engine is too rough, there are no revolutions and it produces some small explosions. After 5 seconds or so, it suddenly accelerates and then comes back to idle speed. Which electronic feature might be causing this failure?
You should check the pump's pressure when starting the engine. If it is low, that might be what is causing your vehicle's explosions. And talking about accelerating and going back to idle speed, that is absolutely ordinary.
I recently had an issue with the Battery Distribution Engine Compartment Fuse Block (see pic)
Truck would not start. Zero power. As a quick fix we jumped two of the terminals and that got it started. However, I have no running lights. Everything else works including headlights, brake light and blinkers. Because the Battery Distribution Engine Compartment Fuse Block will not arrive for a few days and I need to drive in the evening, I was hoping a mechanic could tell me if there is a temp fix by maybe jumping the terminals while I wait for the part to arrive. I currently have a 30 Amp inline fuse fuse so the truck will run. Please help
When trying to crank engine motor does nothing. No power to coils, fuel pump or starter. Can get the motor to spin by jumping starter relay pins #30 and #87. Accessories work.
