Re: Passlock System

Hi guys,


Newb here trying to figure out my friends grandpa's ( WW2 vet ) 97 malibu with 3.1L Auto, 133K miles.

Car is driving down the road and all of a sudden cuts out. Won't start for about 20 mins. Then starts fine. Im thinking the ignition switch is bad. I did tell him to just use the key itself with no heavy rings on it. This maybe isnt related to Passlock but it could be so I thought id get some advice here.

I have yet to test the alternator, battery cables and clean out the ignition cylinder.

If it is a bad key cylinder anyone have any instructions on how to replace the whole thing?
