You need to enter the security code into the radio. You can look in the owners manual for instructions. hopefully somebody wrote the code in there. You may have to take it to a dealer. Only take 15 minutes at most. Once you get it unlocked you can turn off the security feature so it doesn't happen again.

Did you check your ecm fuse?

Remove all three battery cables and clean them and replace bolts.

If none of your coils are firing then it is possible you have lost the ignition module. It mounts under the coils and is not hard to change. Good Luck

replace cranksensor

its about 100$ for the igniton and 150 to 200 for labour

By the fuel tank, in the back of the car.;-)

I had the same thing happen on a 91 Olds 88. Replaced crank shaft position sensor, coil, and ignition module. That solved the problem. I think the culprit was the CSP Sensor, but changed all three so can't say for sure.

have you checked for that relays and regulator?

yes you have to have freon and oil in the compressor for it to work.

You are going to have to remove the radio from the dash and then take the top cover off the radio chassis to gain access to the tape stuck inside.
Here is the radio removal procedure:
You need to remove the plastic part of the dashboard that covers it. To do that remove the two small bolts at the very bottom (there just to the sides of the ashtray drawer and down a couple inches further), then pull the wooden looking trim (at the top of the panel) loose that runs all the way across the front of the car, it just clips in so pry it loose, just be careful not to break it. The top of the panel just clips in too, but it's not near as tight as the trim, so pull out at the bottom of the panel and it should come right off. Once that's off the stereo is held in by 3 screws. Take those out pull the stereo forward, disconnect the 32 pin connector and the antenna, and it's removed

Sometimes the starter sylinoid goes out. If its a clicking noise its the battery. If nothing try the starter. Sometimes you can tap the starter with a hammer and its good if that is not it test the starter. Start here before you go to anything else. Its the starter most likely.

Your transmission is about to give on you, Go to your nearest shop and get it looked at!!!

have the wire replaced by a certified mechanic with oem replacement parts

There is a fusible link for the blower motor. Check that. Don't know where it is. Look up the wiring diagram at autozone.com. Also check the fuse in the fuse box. Could just be that.

Thank you for inquirering about my module location issue. I ended up calling a GM mechanic friend of mine and he helped me out. Thanks again and I will probably use your site again in the furture. Don

yes you can get a puller at any local parts store or harbor freight to pull it off
