    Hi Lenny! I literally was just experiencing the same issue with my car. I was planning to have it towed this morning, but ran across your video last night and decided to give it a shot. Thanks to your video, I was able to get my car started.

    So I just took my 2011 Camaro to have the tire sensor light taken of I purchased a sensor & an alignment. They pulled my car around after I paid $300 I get in it won't start!!!!😢 I'm like WTH it was running fine no issues. Mind you I'm at the Chevy dealership... They tried jumping the car off, I have lights radio ect... then suggest my battery & alternator. I have to recommend this thank you!

    • @isnowyazn
      @isnowyazn 4 месяца назад

      Yeah, I got one of those aftermarket key “upgrades”, and it had a tab that wasn’t designed for one of the aftermarket chip boards. It ended up breaking off one of the soldered bits with one of the plastic backings to the buttons.
      It didn’t damage the transponder itself, it looked like, but this prevented the car from starting, yet still kept all other key fob button functions. I ended up getting a physical turn key and getting that programmed with a 46 chip (P/N: 1911-BT?), and I now use that with the partially disabled key fob.
      Keep in mind that doing something like this, you will still need another WORKING key blade fob, or working turn key. For those that went through with GM’s recall, GM basically just removed the key blades from the key blade fobs, and then programmed physical turn keys to put onto a key ring on the key fobs afterwards.

    Thanks i have a 2012 camaro ls 3.6l and it fixed the problem for now but now im scared to drive it. It happened to me on the freeway . Edit- (service theft deterent system) i got the ignition replaced and new keys made. Fixed the problem for good. Called Gm directly amd thats what they told me to do and that's the issue with the 2010-2015 camaros. It's a recall inside the ignition. Hope this helps mine is fixed

    It’s a bad fuse internal go get a new fuse because what you are doing is when pulling the fuse out it resets the brain to the computer I have the 2011 SS and do all the work on mine hood this helps out

    • @justinznat
      @justinznat 3 года назад

      What internal fuse? This doesn’t make much sense, if the fuse is bad then it is open. Open means no current passes through so wouldn’t that already reset it bc the open fuse is basically an unplugged fuse? I am trying to head off a similar issue , when I unplug x1 at ecm and reconnect is cranks and runs but once cut off, it requires the same motion to make it crank again. I think 12v is hanging somewhere it shouldn’t and my unplugging makes the rest necessary to crank again

    2016 Camaro SS - 3 batteries and 1 new alternator, paid for by me because 3 year warranty was over. I drive 10 minutes from my house to gas station. My new Camaro will not start at the gas station, many times. There is Class Action Lawsuit for defective starter motors. Chevy dealer checked my charging system and said it was battery. I bought 3 batteries in 2 years. Paid $100 for each battery install. I knew it was not the battery or alternator. Chevy dealer wanted $400 to replace the starter. I was planning to trade my Camaro for Toyota or Honda, as it seemed to be a lemon. Now I will keep it and let GM pay to fix the problem. It has a $400 LiFePO4 super battery with 1000 CCA and weighs 17 pounds. I thought LiFePO4 would fix my lemon, as these batteries are OEM for Ferrari.

      @Ibonic 2 года назад

      Humming that gets worse at highway speeds is either a misalignment or you have a "bubble" in your tire. Check the side walls of your tires (inside and out). Does the noise go away while turning one way versus another? If so, it's a front tire.
      Sometimes a air bubble in the sidewall of a tire will cause a humming noise / vibration and isn't immediately noticed because the bubble may be on the hidden sidewall of the tire.

      If the battery is totally dead or so dead that it only has enough life left for you to unlock the doors 1 time then attempt to crank that will happen! Unfortunate. It has happened to me before. Only way I could get out out (cuz there's a key lock feature that causes you to be unable to release the key from ignition unless the battery is powering the ignition key lock sensor), is to put my back seat down & climb through the trunk to release the trunk & get my Dewalt mobile air compressor/jump start/work light multi-tool. I connect it right to the battery (instead of the terminals under the hood) because it seems to get a better connection that way. As soon as it is jump started the sensor again has power & will release the key when you uncrank.

      jesse vazques I personally replace the fuse terminal connector I depend all the pins and connected a new terminal.... I also replace the Bose amp..... I took it to the dealer because the problem persisted and they charged me $500 to find a loose wire..
      Apparently the fuel pump gets power from to different wires that come off the fuse block I believe one of them is connected to the alarm....
      I took the car home and I run it through the car wash over the weekend and water still got in the trunk which is what caused the fuse box and amp to burnout in the first place I have no idea how the water is getting in

      @@edgu71eg I carry a Jump Starter in the glove-box. It is embarrassing to need a jump start at the gas station, for your new 2016 Camaro. I replaced the battery with LiFePO4 battery from Arc-Angel with 1000 CCA. I still need a jump start about 10% of the time. The fuse box on top of the battery is defective? What is the GM part # for the fuse box? Thanks.
