I'm not sure if this applies to you, but I had the same problem. It happened when I opened the door with the key instead of the key fob. Try unlocking the doors with the key fob and then starting it, it worked for me. The aftermarket setup on my 2000 Silverado has to have a little button pushed in if you unlock the door with the key instead of the fob. I'm not sure this is your case, but thought I'd throw my $.02 in.

Sounds like a starter defect. Aren't the solenoids on the starter themselves?? :dunno:

Could be the ignition switch, but I really don't know any way to check it aside from throwing down a couple hundred for a replacement.
