ok so it all starts out with my whole undercarrage falling off my car (costed 2400 to repair) than the next day i get a flat in the most ghetto area and i have to leave it over night after trying to fix it in 45 degree weather for 2 hours. Than last night after church i go out and try to start my car and it doesnt start. I dont know what to do, when i twist the key all the way i can hear just one low click, it's not the battery because all my lights work and my radio turns on and my step dad tried jump starting it and it did nothing. Also it blinks security when i twist the key all the way. There might be a kill switch but the previous owner didnt tell us about any kill switch and i never switched it on. So than we try push starting it and it mutters a little bit than stops.

Does anyone know what the problem is and if so could you tell me how to fix it

thanks a lot and Merry Christmas

I don't get it, how could the undercarrige "fall off"? That would mean that most of your interior fell out with it. How the hell did something like that happen? With a car as new as yours, and being in TX, I don't see how the underbody could have rusted away so quickly.

Did you try starting it with a different key (if you have a second key)? Maybe there's something wrong with the metal chip in your current key. I've read about some VATS issues before, but I've never really followed what the fixes are.

Trans and diff fell out? So crossmember, torque arm, shock mounts, etc. all came loose? I think someone might have been messing with your car if that's the case.

Yeah the security thing is most likely vats. You can get a new key at a gm dealership. You could also try to clean the metal peice on the key real good.

Bring your registration, and your drivers liscense. My bro gave me his registration to get him another key for his 06 Impala and they wouldn't give me a copy of the key because he wasn't present

the transmission and diff FELL OUT of the car? Explain a little more please.

oh and there is a way around VATS, do some searching here and you'll find a couple cheap and easy fixes. search bypass vats or similar.

Have you checked the ignition fuse? I remember I had similar problems and that fuse was blown. Blew another and found out the starter wire was grounded on my header.

Actually, the reason that he has to be present is because in some state its a law and most dealerships are required to copy the OWNERS drivers liscense and registration and keep it on file. If you don't have the copy and if they ask for it, then they will be fined and key copying or ordering rights will be revoked. You would be suprised at how many family members steal each others registration to get keys.

ok so i brought it to the dealership and it ended up being the key converter or something dealing with the thing that reads the chip. And i dont know how te differential cracked and the transmission and tranny came apart all i know was that i went to discount tire to get a set of tires, they didnt have it so i reversed out and than i heard something dragging from under my car and the whole thing just shut off and locked up and i looked under and there was green goop under the differential

measure the resistance of your key. get some resistors from radiosack ( that match the key's resistance) . find the two wires that run from your ignition lock cylinder, solder the resistors inline. see if that works.
