Unhappy 99 bravada cranks but does not start

ok guys and gals i have a 99 bravada love it ! until now, i went out one morning and it would start but not stay running ! came back 10 minutes later and it fired right up started 5 more times after that. then it would start but not saty running again ! so i had it towed to a shop they said it was the fuel pump. i agreed we'll they call me back and said that it still will not stay running. Now i do have a viper secuirty system with remote start on the vehicle and yes it has a 555l with it ( learns the pass lock code ) so i thought maybe that was interfearing with the vehicle i removed the alarm and it fired right up again for five more times now it is doing it again ! i tried leaving the key in the ignition for 10 minutes until the security light stays solid but still the same thing ! i even tried bypassing the passlock by running a seperate 12volt wire to the fuel pump on a toggle switch and that still didnt work i guess passlock is more integrated with the system than just the fuel pump ! my question now is --- is it the key switch ? or does the passlock need to be replaced ??? i will be forced to take it to the dealer from what i hear to get it re-programed or replaced, if anyone has answers please e-mail [email protected] i cannot afford any more high price bills at this time and its my only transportation !

Question Re: 99 bravada cranks but does not start

Does the security lite stay on? How about the money you spent on an unecccessary fuel pump? You need to approach the shop and ask them to put back your old pump, refund the money or fix the truck!

We'll Since They Had It For A Couple Of Days They Said They Put The Old Stuff Back In But I Think They Just Kept The New Stuff In I Didnt Have To Pay For The New Parts Just 50 In Diagnostic Fees Wich I Dont Think I Needed To Pay But, Who To Argue With The Corporate World, And Yes The Light Blinks All The Time When You Get In Even When You Try To Start It. I Tried Waiting For 10 Minutes Until It Went Solid And Still Nothing, I Even Tried Taking The Terminals Off Of The Battery And Waiting An Hour And Again Nothing. I Called Gm They Told Me Worse Case Senario About $ 600 I Guess Im Just Stuck, And Will Have To Take It To The Shop ! And Get It Done Tehre !! Any Known Bypasses ?
