Yeah I'm thinking its something else as this other key is doing it too.. I may go to radioshack an pick up some resistors and give that fix a try. I'm just confused it says to connect the wires from the bcm to the resistor and then tape off/insulate the wires going to the ignition. Won't that stop the ignition from getting power or are those just the wires from the bcm? Other then that it doesnt look too mind boggling.

One thing to be aware of is if you have a stock deck that has the theft lock security system, once you disconnect it, you will have to reset it.

Here is a youtube video on it

Thanks man this seems like its going to cause a headache but with going to school again soon can't really justify spending $100's at a mechanics if its something I can fix myself. Why would GM make such a stupid system-better yet if they knew there was an issue why wouldnt they simply do a recall to have it fixed? I know chrysler did that 2 years ago for a faulty control arm on liberty's. Oh well

Well Brad if your watching. I got the balls and tried the resistor fix...


I'll be jiggered. Worked like a hot damn. Checked for codes after and clean and clear, security is unlocked and it took about 1/2 hour and $3~

Problem solved
