this actualy tee23 i couldt log in under that named so i registered again. I got the malibu started that night after trying to get a jump looking at the fuel pump me and my father read the chevy manual. For anyone with this same problem , step by step. turn your key in the ignition to on but dont tru to start and the theft system light, engine light and oil light will remain on while all other lights go off. keep the key in the on position for ten min until the the theft light stops flashing and after the light goes off turn the car off and take the key out. wait about 3 or 4 seconds and then try to start it should come right on. i do know that some how the car was censored to lock up and when the theft system is activated it wont allow fuel into the fuel pump so before you think there is a major problem try this. thanks for everyone who viewed my forum but couldnt help. sometimes it helps to just read . ive had the manual for months and just not read it. i can say that if this works for you call a chevy dealer and find out how you can cause your car to trigger this censor. what i did will work a few times but afrien of mine said that if it continues to lock and you can unlock it it will only work for so long after about 5 time your engine will lock for good and ot cost about 300 bucks for your system to be replaced. thank you
