Diagnostic Aids
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2000 Chevrolet Corvette. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- The following conditions may cause an intermittent:
- Intermittent short to ground in White/Black wire between BCM and ignition switch.
- Intermittent short between White/Black and Purple/White wires.
- PASS-Key(R) resistor is shorted.
- If key resistor pellet is incorrect, there will be no BCM outputs to theft deterrent relay or PCM for about 3 minutes. If a key (even a proper PASS-Key(R)) is inserted or ignition is turned on again, a 3-minute time-out period will reset. If battery is disconnected, time-out period will be reset when battery is reconnected.
- If there is a short between White/Black wire and Purple/White wire between BCM and ignition switch, a no-crank condition will exist.
