Might be worth starting with a wiggle test if you don't have access to any diagnostics. engine running and as suggested, careful of moving parts just go round the engine bay giving the loom/wiring a wiggle to see if you can re-create the fault. Jon

sounds like your passlock sensor on the ignition barrel is faulty. you will have to go to the dealer to have it replaced because of the programming after replacement.

The Starter silenoid is probably what the problem is. And the knocking could that be a loose starter? The two problems doesn't seem connected.

SOURCE: 2003 Monte Carlo SS Hesitates and Dies after running for awhile

The ck engine light should not be ignored, what sensor was shown to be bad ? Have it scanned again and replace the sensor that is bad if it still runs rough you might want to consider a tune up. Plugs, wires, fuel and air filter's and clean the throttle body with some gumout. It could also be the IAC motor Idle Air Control. Good Luck

EGR Valve replacement and Check engine light

Error code will have to be cleared. The way that cars know when to turn on the check engine light is that there is a recurring error for "x" miles or time, as long as that error exists in it's memory most cars will continue displaying the check engine light.

Hi i got a buddy who has 2001 monte ss and in the past 4 months i replaced #1 & #2 rockers and push rods and its knockin again i think its the cam any ideasw thanks

Have you tried checking the clearance of the lifters? Try doing a valve adjustment before replacing anything else.

It is possible that the valves are not seated right, or it is also possible that it is a "Rod Knock", which is the sign of a warn engine. Any engine that is over 150,xxx miles needs to be replaced or rebuilt.

Also, make sure the proper amount of oil is in the car. It is a very common problem to run low on oil, or to let the car go past that 3,000 mile change because you think it won't hurt anything, and it can seriously mess up the car.

Especially when you are dealing with newer SS models.

2001 monte carlo SS 3800 motor,turn over but won't fire

There is a possibility that the battery is bad and not making the fuel pump work properly or to it's right pressure. Cna you hear the fuel pump come on when you turn the ignition switch to the on position... Have someone unscrew the fuel cap and listen near the hole you put fuel in to see if they hear a humming or vibrating sound when you turn the key to the on position.... If you hear the fuel pump come on Check the battery... It might have good voltage but the amps might be week... It could be the battery...
