My 97 cav 2.2 wouldn't start the other day. Would just crank over, after a few minutes i put the gas pedal to the floor and i finally caught. But the security light stayed on, i disconnected the battery which did the trick. Driver today it came on again? But i shut the car off and restarted it and it was ok. What is wrong with it????? Thanks
Check your ignition fuses i had this same problem then reflash your pcm if all the fuses are good but my problem was in the ign 2 40 amp fuse

Would i just get a ign fuse? Thank you
Check that fuse if its not blown check for voltage with a volt meter if the fuse looks good test the resistance in it, it should be .2 to .5 ohms

OK i will do that cause the fuse was ok.. thanks
I am having the sort of the same problem but my security light is not flashing ,it just stays on and when the key is turned to start ,I get nothing...what gives?...Mark
If the security light is coming on, but the car still starts I would say it's just getting old. If the security system is acting up, it will start and then stall after 1-2 seconds.
i find it amusing that SHOoff has nothing better to do but follow me around & be an unhelpful dick in even cross-forum. - Jon Mick
I can smell gas though,still no start.
Sounds like you have a different issue.
