Hello-
This is my first post on here, so hopefully I can get some help. I have a '02 GA gt1. The security light came on in late May, so I got that shut off at the dealership for 180 bucks. At that time they said if it came on again, they would have to replace something (not sure what it was). Well, now that light is back on, and I'm afraid one of these times my car won't start. In May my car wouldn't start, unless I put the ignition to "on" and let it sit there for 10 minutes. My question is rather than paying a heafty bill, does anyone know a cheap fix for this problem? I can't really afford to pay the 370+ dollars to get this new part at the dealership. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks-jms

There's a way to bypass the built in security on our cars. I know b'c we had to bypass it on mine to put in my aftermarket alarm. I'm not sure how to do it myself but google it and you can get diagrams showing how to do it.

*** EDIT ***

Did some google searching of my own to help you out. Here's a few links I came up with:

GM passlock bypass - $19.99 (http://www.commandocaralarms.com/itemdetails.asp?ProductID=558)

passlock diagram (http://www.jaycorptech.com/tech/passlock.htm)

Not sure if it'll help but it's a start. Oh...and welcome to the GAOC!
