Hey have you recently changed your head unit. I have a 2000 s10 2.2 and i recently hardwired my pioneer 4000ub head unit and the security light came on upon not starting. every time you try to start the car while the security light is on it will add 10 minutes onto your time. For the security light not to come on you need to check your wiring. just remember dont keep trying becuase it wont work!!! find the problem and fix it.

2001 chevy malibu wont start after the car runs out of gas and we put more gas

It may take 3-4 times cranking for a few seconds,
with a 5 second pause between to get fuel up to the engine. Also may have sucked up
some dirt/debris into the fuel pump after running it dry. May want to change fuel filter.
you can try to have someone bang on the bottom of the tank while someone else
cranks engine. Sometimes this will free up a stuck fuel pump. good-day!!

My 98 mustang has what seems to be good crank but wont start, it will start and run good if i spay starter fluid in it. this problem comes and gose from one day to the next. what do you thin?

if it runs when spraying starting fluid in it, then the most likely problem is no fuel getting to engine. check or replace fuel filter, check the fuel pump fuse and relay it may have blown. if not that see if fuel pump is working. to check pump--- have someone turn car to on, while you feel for vibration at fuel tank under car. a fuel pump only comes on for a few seconds to get the fuel to engine. but when started it runs continuously. have a good day !!

2000 Blazer Cranks, Won't Start

First of all, a diagnostic wont tell them that there is arcing involved. I am thinking it is your crank sensor. It expands and retracts in different weather situations.It should make contact in all weather situations.

Wont start.

The cam or crank position sensors are notorious for failing, after they age and get heat in them the signal is no longer generated. Also make sure fuel lift pump is working properly, check all of the fuel filters and for fuel leaks of any kind including sucking air on the suction side of the lift pump. Good Luck!!

F150 fuel pump replacement

You could have rust in your gas tank, what will happen if that is the case is crank and run and when the rust gets stirred up it will clog your pump and filter. After a while it will kill your pump, and ruin your filter, and cause it not to crank at all. I would drain the tank and look at the fuel as it comes out if it has any red in it that is your problem. I had the same problem and that sounds just like my problem. I hope that helps you out.
