I have a 2000 Alero that is having a starting problem due to the stock security system. It has recently came up out of no where, and prevents me from getting to work, or anywhere else I need. I have replaced the passlock cylinder in the ignition, fuel pump and filter, but still when I turn the car to acc or on, the fuel pump does not come on, but the security light does. I was told the security system shuts off power to the fuel pump. This is a big problem because it happens multiple times a week, to the point I'm afraid to turn my car off anywhere I go. I don't mind replacing the parts, I just need to know how, and no one will inform me.
Today, 13 Apr 05, while driving my wife's car to and from work, her 2000 Alero shut down at high speeds 65 to 70 mph. I was able to pull it off the side of the road each time, but power steering and brakes were hard to use. One of these times almost caused an accident. After pulling to the side of the road, I was able to turn off the ignition and restart the vehicle. There seems to be a major electrical problem. I have taken the vehicle in for the intermittent signals about 3 months ago and these are not working now either, I will be taking the vehicle back in to fix.
I have a 2000 Alero and it fails to start every once in a while. The problem seems to be coming from the ignition fuse but even after changing the fuse it would still not start. I as well as my mechanic are baffled. The latest was last weekend but it has happened about 6 times. The weather has nothing to do with it as well as the amount of driving done or not done. It seems to be a random occurrence.
