it is likely that you have a short circuit somewhere,either in the wiring or one of the lamps you will have to check the wiring & lamps to try & find the fault.....hope this helps......cheers.

This is the Passlock or PASSkey security system on your car locking you out. GM vehicles have had this problem FOREVER ( since 1982 ) and instead of fixing it, GM decided they would rather just make money off the problem. Take this into the dealer and be prepared to pay up to 1200 for it to be fixed. 200 dollar transponder key at the least. It is possible to bypass this system entirely depending on the year.

Pontiac G5 2007 2008 2009 & 2010 can be bypassed. Takes about an hour and this problem will never happen again. Read this link for info, pictures, and links to sites that will help you. You are gunna need the one labeled "PERMANENT FIX". Good luck and comment back if you have any questions.

If it mainly happens when under load, I would change the fuel filter. While a semi clogged filter will allows enough fuel to pass when idelling or at slower speeds, it might not give consistant fuel flow when at higher speeds or under load - like climbing a hill.

• When is the last time you have put new plugs and wires on your car? You one really fouled plug can make your car run like this. If it has been a while I would do a tune up on your car.
• Make sure to check your air filter. A clogged air filter will will starve the car for air. So will a dirty Air Filter Housing for that mattes.
• A really clogged fuel filter will stall the car. I have seen fuel filters so bad the vehicle would not start.
• These are some can do at home tips that come to mind with the symptom you are explaining.
• You could also have a broken motor mount. There is no engine torque in neutral so a broken motor mount could be the cause as well.
• Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa.

the gearing or the switch has gone bad so all you can do is disconnect the battery and unplug the alternator as well to shut off the engine. you can disable the fuel pump fuse although the battery will drain since power is still going through the circuits

when one side flasher blinks faster than the other it usually means there is a faulty bulb on the side blinking faster

Hi nicoleelgert, i suspect the steering lock is giving you the problem, all you need to do is turn the steering wheel left and right ( jiggle ) while turning the key in the ignition, it won't move much because it's locked but it will be enough to release the steering lock and allow you to turn key.. make sure you have the shifter in Park position too. Good luck . OK

if its a bulb then go to a repair shop(not dealer) to have it replaced.if the bulbs are working then its a flasher.

Probably not ...

Your question comes under the heading...Pontiac Cars and Trucks? Need more help in what kind of car you have...by your email...you have a Jeep model?

Hello most of the pontiacs you have to remove the insulation in the trunk to access the bolts and then remove the lense. The center brake light you probably have to remove the plastic cover under the trunk lid if it is in the rear dash you will have to preety much have to get into the trunk and look up right in the center
good luck

I think you are opening up a can of worms and at the end of the day you will wish you had gone to a dealer and paid 15 bucks to have them do it. I have never seen a vehicle fuse box which requires special tools to get at, the thinking is that fuse replacement can be done fairly quickly, generally they even provide a little plastic puller tool for those without fingernails. There are however special tools for pulling inside trim panels without damage, if you must, go buy one of those.

If you google around you will find many little horror stories about do it yourself remote reprogramming. Put the jumper wire between these two connectors on the diagnostic interface, turn on the ignition, but do not start it and hold the button down on the remote for 4 seconds. Now tow the car to a dealer and spend hundreds!

I had a nice GM dealer reprogram a remote once for free as i had them change the oil and rotate the tires, plus they have a little meter thing which checks the remote so you know it is putting out a signal.

Usually corroded sockets, burned out bulbs or open (blown) fuses.

Run a fuel pressure test,may have a bad fuel injecter.

The fob itself is bad. You can sometimes take them apart and clean the contacts but 9 times out of 10 they have to be replaced.

Not having that diagnosed,is called abuse

Those lights have been on all vehicles for 30 years

Hello nichole hump: My name is Roger and I will answer your question. The mechanic or repair shop air bound by a federal law. Basically the law says if they remove an emission part they have to replace it with an emission part. To remove the catalytic converters and leave them off is a federal offense. Punishable by fine of $5000.00 to $10,000.00 with possible jail time. This makes the removal of the exhaust component not a viable repair but not worth the cost. Should you need further help please just ask. Please rate the answer. Thank You for using Fix Ya. Roger
