Could be a few things. Maybe the starter, maybe a short circuit in the battery, maybe even the ignition switch.

asiaspeights' garage Thank you for your answer I appreciate it. I don't think it is the starter because it starts up then it dies after a few seconds.

I had this problem with my 2001 Tahoe. Ended up being a part wishing the fuel pump that failed. Mine ran rough right before it stalled. Hope this helps.
