Security light.

[cavaliers60]

On my way to work, my security light came on. Stayed on until I tried restarting the car at work. Any ideas what it was or is?

your car missed you... it has security issues.

Key May be wore out a bit I know that's what my problem was

[Cashdollar2009]

Mine does the same thing every once in a while. Have also had the passlock issue like 4 times in the last few months. Makes sense with the key I suppose?

And lol at Adria.

key or ignition cylinder is on its last leg

[cavaliers60]

key looks like it's still in good shape... maybe it is the cylinder... It didn't do it on the way home, so we will see what happens. :lol: If it is the ignition cylinder, how much are they to replace?

[pimpalero2003]

300-400 prolly at dealer jay a quess though

Heh...mine comes on every day and stays on for the entire time it's being driven. I had the key and the ignition cyl. replaced ($400) and less than 2 weeks later it was back to its old tricks. During the summer I have to deal with the security lockout on average about once a week where I have to wait 10 minutes for the re-learn. In the winter when the temps aren't as high, and there is no humidity the problem basically goes away.

i think the ignition cylinder is around 100-140$ for the part and then figure in the raping charge from a dealership so yea probably around $400 to get it replaced, you could always just make a keyless ignition and save yourself a ton of money, all u need is 2-3 relays, like 25ft of 10g wire, and high amp rated push button and some misc. connectors to go keyless

^^Teach me to go keyless......

[pimpalero2003]

Or just disable the passlock put it on a switch

[cavaliers60]

I like the keyless idea. I actually wouldn't mind doing something like that. :) Need a good how to though...

[Philbar71]

Isint there a way you can disable Passlock by using resistors matching the resistance of the key or something similar to that?

[pimpalero2003]

Think can just cut the yellow wire while car is running smarter to put on a switch if at dies it won't start until it's reconnected. Think doing I that way light will stay on all the time though
