i tried to start my car one day and i got no response. The starter/ solenoid don't make a sound when i turn the key. The battery is good. I tried turning the key to the on position and then jumping the solenoid with a wire from the battery. It turns the engine over but it will not fire. I read about the theft deterent module shutting down the ignition (ie. no reponse when i turn the key) and also the fuel pump (ie. engine wont fire when i jump the solenoid). I read some other posts about this same problem but i need more detail on where to find the ignition key harness connector and where to put the resistor and how to determine what type of resistor. here is the post i copied from rbade:


OK Everyone,
I finally disconnected the key connector underneath the dash and placed the 3000 ohm resistor in the connector going to the Theft Deterrent Module. I determined the key resistance required from the Service Manual (15 possibilities). The car starts and runs fine now. If anyone needs the key info, the GM Service Manual has it. However, if you worry about someone breaking that part of the Theft Deterrent system, please understand that it takes about 10 minutes apart from trying each resistance possibility. Something GM put into the Module to prevent quick and easy identification. Otherwise, you have to go to a GM Dealer and they have a key interrogator that they hook into the connector and it reads the key # from the car theft deterrent module and PCM.


Any other sugesions or hlp would be greatly apprieciated.
Thanks
kyle
