2000 Jimmy will not start after battery replacement - suspect security system
I had my Jimmy;s battery die after sitting a long while. So I replaced it with a new one go to start but it will only crank. When I turn the key to RUN I can hear the fuel pump prime but no idiot lights aluminate except for a Blinking Security light and a Red Battery Indicator. I tried to spray ether in to the throttle body but did not have but a little in the can. What I did manage to get in did cause the engine to almost catch but then not catch. I am thinking that maybe the OEM security system is not disengaging and will not allow the truck to start??? I also tried to reset the security system by following
the 30 Minute Learn Procedure. After 15 mins the security light kept flashing and the only other idiot light active was the red battery light.. All fuses were physically removed and checked both under the hood and in the cab. Could it be the ECM? From what I can tell it already has a remanufactured one installed.. Thanks in advance for your time and assistance.
