Hi there,
Most commonly with these cars the security system will do this if the battery is "drained" while trying to start the car. ie: a low battery that is too weak to turn the engine over. Usualy the power options & accesories will not work if this is happening.
To fix it you will need to ensure the battery is charged, you then disconnect the battery negative cable for about 1 minute with the key out of the ignition. reconnect the battery cable & start the car normally. Everything should be back to normal.
Let me know if there is anything more you need for this concern.
Farrout!

2001 Chevy venture won't start

Do you have the resistor pellet in your key? The one with the short wire on each side of the key shank? If yes, I can provide a bypass procedure. It involves using an ohmmeter to measure the key resistance and making a small resistor set to simulate the key. You will also need a soldering iron and a package of resistors you can buy from radio shack. Let me know if you want the details.

2000 chevy venture doesnt start

check to make sure the security light is not on if it is the van will have spark but no injecter pulse the best way to solve this issue is to have the original igniton key and put it in the igniton in the run position and leave it on for 10 minutes then the light will flash then try to start the van
