Don't you trust your mechanic ? If he's any good he would have done a voltage drop test on the starting system . This test would eliminate connections an battery cables as the problem . Leading to the conclusion the starter is bad . Any lights like anti theft lit ? SECURITY , Immobilizer On the instrument cluster . Starter Voltage Drop
replace battery cables could have bad ground cable.if see dash lights on when turn ignition to on position.check starter fuse or relay or remove starter check for faulty starter solenoid or starter.if starter okay and fuse starter relay okay ignition fuse and switch okay see dash lights could have problem in the theft security system need have vechicle code scan see if theft security fault code show up.
Have the starter tested! Check the cables to see if they are in good condition. Check the cable that goes to the starter. They all need tight connections.Don`t know the year,make and model. but older cars have a solenoid switch that is not on the starter.
Maybe it's the anti-theft system an not the remote start . Is the SECURITY light lit on the instrument cluster ? GM anti-theft systems will disable the fuel injectors if there is a problem .
hllo theft system problem most of time you need to change the ignition baril with housing its not cheap dealer parts only lots of time i suggest to my customer a remote car starter the system come with theft bypass so car start witout spending at least double or triple the price of a remote starter good luck pierre
You need to reset the theft system. To do this, try to start it. It should start and die. Then after it dies and the theft light is flashing, leave the key on for 10 minutes. After 10 min, the theft light should go out. After the theft light goes out, turn off the key. Count to 5, then restart it. Then it should work.
The security, antitheft or lock picture/icon is a visual indication that something in the car's antitheft system is failing. In most GM cars and trucks there is a hidden system that most people are unaware even exists. From the moment you put your key in the ignition, there begins a constant line of communication between your key's security chip or transponder, to the ignition's lock cylinder, and then to the car's TDM (Theft Deterrent Module). These 3 parts are in CONSTANT communication. If the key is in the ignition, then these parts are sending signals to each other. The security light illuminates when that signal gets broken, even just for a second. When the signal breaks, the car misinterprets this as an attempt at theft and goes into antitheft mode. The car thinks its being stolen or hotwired because it is not getting that signal from YOUR specific key. This is why the security light turns on and shuts down your vehicle. This link explains it pretty well.

Even though I bought the vehicle new, there was an aftermarket security system installed. The system had a bad diode, so i removed the system and reconnected the factory wires.
Is your security light flashing ?if so you have a problem with the anti theft system.Leave the key on for 10 minutes ,then try this should reset the anti theft system
