I have a 2006 cobalt all fuses are good new battery no codes show up when the ignition is turned over lights blink motor doesent turn over there is a light on the dash that has a car with a lock through it

  • mychalg Mar 07, 2009

    i have an 06 cobalt, it has full system power, but will not turn over, it has the theft thing showing, but i don't have automatic lock. Is their another way to reset the system?

  • Anonymous Apr 10, 2009

    I have an '07 with the same problem. The buttons on the steering wheel stop working as well. Only that little car-with-the-lock light illuminates on the dash. I have an LS with no security system....

    The problem just comes and goes. Sometimes disconnecting the battery fixes it. Going to the dealer after Easter...

This sounds like the anti-theft system - Are you using the original factory key? Have you tried locking the car with your remote and then unlocking it with the remote (if you have one)?

2006 Chevy Cobalt SS. How to get past the antitheft system on it please.

A nice simple answer, you can't. Think of it this way, the car doesn't know you are the owner, and it is there to stop exactly what you are trying to do. You have two computer ECM and BCM, plus the antitheft module and a number of sensors all trying to stop you. All you have to do is the re-learn procedure. Plan B is an auto electrician or alarm / radio installer or auto locksmith.

30 Minute Re-Learn Procedure
  1. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
  2. Attempt to start the engine, then release the key to ON (vehicle will not start).
  3. Observe the SECURITY telltale, after approximately 10 minutes the telltale will turn OFF.
  4. Turn OFF the ignition, and wait 5 seconds .

2006 cobalt battery saver on and security light on acts Luke battery is dead but it's not, will start if you jump a wire to starter but lugs like in 2nd gear.ran fine turned it off New switch

If you installed a new ignition switch and now the security light is on than the BCM has not relearned the new ignition switch. You can google "gm security relearn" to find instructions on how to do this.

I have full battery power but no power to my dash ignition lights when i turn key put have head lights and horn. on my 2008 chevy cobalt

Some cars have inline fuses in the battery cables and have multiple connections for components making one get power and others not. If all your fuses are good, the next thing to look at is the electrical part of the key switch. Usually there is the mechanical part with the tumbler, and the electrical part.

2006 cobalt.replaed starter relay fuse all lights come on dash ect. fuel going to fuel pump but wont crank over

Are you positive the battery is good? Did you try to jump it ? Make sure all cables are clean and tight. When you say "won't crank over" do you mean the engine doesn't turn at all? If not, I don't know why you think the fuel pump would be the culprit. If it cranks and doesn't start, I don't know why you replaced the starter.

Disconnecting the battery doesn't reset the light. You need a scan tool for that unless you get lucky and fix the problem and go through enough cycles for it to go out on it's own.

Take it to Autozone or Advance or somewhere and have them read the codes. They do it for free for you. (They are hoping you will buy parts there) They can reset the light as well.

My 2006 buick lacrosse wont start radio and lights work but its not saying nothing when i try to crank it

Hello! Do you hear a click when the key is turned?...If no click is heard either the ignition key, the Crank relay, the starter, or the battery are suspect...Having lights and radio does not mean the battery is capable of running a starter motor......Put a meter on the battery...should read 12.5 volts...Turn key...Does voltage drop to 8 or 9 volts? Bad battery...If all is well with battery and connections to it...Check the starter fuse # 33 in the under hood fuse/relay box...If the fuse is good that click you should hear is from the Crank Relay in that box...If all of the above is OK connect your meter to the Purple wire that is connected to the starter motor...When the key is turned 12 volts must be on that wire...If there is the starter motor is defective...So, #1...Do you hear a click when key is turned...That would point at a bad starter or weak battery...#2...If you do not hear a click bad fuse #33, bad Crank Relay, bad ignition switch...#3...If fuse is good Bad Crank Relay or Ignition switch; Crank Relay is a low cost item ($10)...Replace Relay...Stop there and send a comment as to results...Guru...saailer

I started my 2006 chevy cobalt this morning and it idles really rough and my check engine light is blinking on and off. It ran fine the other day when i drove it

Rough idle, flashing CEL, low power would indicate a faulty ignition coil. A armchair diagnosis would be to replace the ignition coil. You'll have to swap the the contact stems (rubber conductors between the coils and the spark plugs) and the igniter module.

Simple task requiring a 10 mm socket and ratchet, a 10mm box end wrench, a T-15 torx bit with adapter and a new coil pack. Cost around $100 and takes a half-hour.

Left keys in ignition overnight, turned to have interior lights on. battery is dead, cant get key out or pop trunk to get to the battery to charge it.

If you know anyone that has a portable booster, you should be able to plug the cord from the 12v outlet on the booster into the 12v (cigarette lighter or accessory charger) in the car, and get enough power to pop the trunk.
