According to RepairPal: "the car wont start due to anti-theft system, it will say wait three minutes then start, but repeat this process 4-5 times - Visitor"
They say there are 75 reports of: "Problems with the anti-theft systems using the raised-chip key can prevent the car from starting. The wires in the steering column to the ignition lock cylinder tend to break. The the key and ignition lock cylinder must be replaced to correct this condition."
if the theft light is was flashing on you, put the key in the ignition and turn all the way until the instrument cluster lights up, just don't start the car. leave it like that for aprox. 10 min. or until light goes out. when that happens, turn of(don't take out keys) and try to start car. hope it works.
More information is needed but, reading between the lines, this is usually an issue with antitheft device functionality and can only be accessed by the dealer.
I had the same problem. trying to save money i took it to several auto places who thought they could fix it..... after a lot of money and my 800.00 after market alarm was taken off i had it took to the dealer . They fix it in two hours they put in new switch and key haven't had any problems sence.
Its your engine to chassis ground I had same problem replace wire or try sanding paint around connection for better connection. The wire is located on top left of engine, very visible
the wire that goes to the ignition to the anti theft device is probably broken if you call a good locksmith they can go in through the steering column and fix it same thing happened to my 95 eldorado apparently cadillac designed the anti theft system to coincide with the ignition and is connected to the ignition with two wires that turn as the key is turned the wires twist and eventually they wear out
'97 Cady . won't start due to "anti theft". Must wait 3 minutes with ignition off and then it will start.
