Chevy Impala Security System
Asked by Bartleytj Nov 13, 2014 at 03:37 PM about the 2001 Chevrolet Impala FWD
Question type: Maintenance & Repair
I took my 2001 Chevy Impala to get the coolant system repaired. When the repairs were
done, my security system would not let the car start. I had it towed from the repair shop
to an alarm shop and they could not get it started either. The alarm shop said there may
be a problem with my computer. I don't understand. My car was starting fine until I took it
to the first shop. Now I'm being advised to go to a deal, which I can't afford. I would like to
at least have an idea what's wrong with my car and what to do as to not get taken again.

My security light keeps coming on and won't start, however when I use my remote start it will start. I don't know what's going on with it
Witb your security light on it thinks its a new key needs to be programmed
