SOURCE: 2003 CTS ANTI-THEFT ON DASH

The anti-theft device of your car (officially known as the PASSLOCK II key
based engine disabling system) is triggered and it's doing what it's supposed to do - it prevents the car from moving by cutting the power to the engine's ECM and blocking the lever of the transmission. If you can't disable it then it's faulty.
The only thing you can do is to reset it: put the key in the ignition, turn it on to just before cranking and then leaving it that way for 10 mins. If this doesn't fix it then you will have to have the car towed top a dealer. They will inspect the system and fix it: if you're lucky all it will needs is a full reprogramming - this will cost you around $200; if you're unlucky the module itself is faulty and it will have to be replaced and reprogrammed, at a cost of around $1000.

SOURCE: The anti theft isn't recognizing my key, and will

This comes from personal experience on my Mother's '03 Impala. Apparently the chip in the key died. Tried the spare key that came with the car and it all works again. If this solves your problem (as it did mine) just go to your dealership and have a new key cut.

2007 Impala stuck in park and gear override silver button won't work. Can't figure out the problem please help

If your 2007 Impala is stuck in park and the gear override silver button doesn't work, there may be a few potential problems that are causing the problem. Here are some common causes and troubleshooting solutions you can try: Brake light switch: The most common cause of this problem is a faulty brake light switch. The brake light switch is responsible for sending a signal to the shift interlock solenoid to release the shifter when the brake pedal is depressed and can prevent the shifter from releasing if the switch does not operate properly. Make sure your brake lights work by pressing on the brake pedal. If they don't work, it's probably a brake light switch issue that needs to be replaced. Shift Interlock Solenoid: The shift interlock solenoid is a mechanism that prevents the shifter from moving without pressing the brake pedal If the solenoid is faulty or a blown fuse can cause the shifter to go into park. Check the fuse connected to the shift interlock system and replace if necessary. If the fuse is good, the solenoid may need to be replaced. Shift Cable: The shift cable connects the shifter to the transmission and allows you to change gears. Damaged, loose, or misaligned cables can prevent the shifter from leaving the parking space. Inspect the shift cable for any obvious issues and make sure it is securely attached to the shifter and transmission. Shift lock control module: Some vehicles have a shift lock control module that ensures proper operation of the shift interlock system. Malfunction of this module can cause the problem. It may be necessary to use a diagnostic scan tool to check for any error codes associated with the module. Ignition switch: Faulty ignition under certain conditions

Look for a button that allows you to slide the physical key out of the fob. Step 2: Turn the vehicle key to unlock the car door without releasing it. Hold the key for 30 seconds in this position. This will signal to your car's system that you have the right key, and will enable you to bypass your car's alarm system.

1998 sunfire in codep1629, how do I fix it

You may want to do some research on the code. The basic problem is the anti-theft system is not seeing a crank signal and shutting down the fuel pump. It could be the security system, or the crank sensor, or other issues.
If you have auto start or a remote starting system it can cause these problems too.

2004 cts bake lights will not come on just setting car has to be on is that a bad bake switch and car is stuck in park

most modern cars (and trucks, too!) have a safety system that prevents someone from shifting out of park if the brakes are not pressed (it helps keep small children from moving the car out of park), check the switch(es) on the brake pedal to see if A) it (they) are getting power, and B) that the power is going thru to the brake lights/ brake interrupt solenoid.

Need to replace the shift solenoid on my 2003 buick rendezvous and was told at the dealership that if I removed the pan and filter I would have acess to the solenoids, This is not true. were are they...

Shift solenoids are in fact located inside transmissions. SHIFTER solenoids are located under the dash and are connected to the brake switch to enable you to change gearshift positions when the brake pedal is depressed.

Car won't go in drive without using override button

does your brake lights work? it's sounds like the shift lock solenoid isn't working it could be not getting a signal from the brake light switch or if it is getting signal then the shiftlock solenoid is bad but make sure the solenoid is getting a signal from the brakelight switch first
