Default No start

Ok I pulled the starter fuse from my boyfriends 99 camaro z28 without disconnecting the battery ( didnt know you had to disconnect it). Nothing was wrong with the fuse when I pulled it I just pulled it so he couldn't leave(i know I'm a crazy). Anyways after about 2hours I go out it back in and it won't start. Lights come and security light flashes on radio comes on but no start. So we wait til the next morning and try it again. Nothing so we disconnected the battery for a min waited then he said he did the whole key thing where you turn the key over for 10mins and wait (IDK if it was done right) then he locked the keys in the car but we got it unlocked cause the window was crack but now the outside lights flash. Also we know it's not the starter cause we tried to jump the starter and it started but then automatically died
. Won't say running.

Sounds like the security system was armed, based on you mentioning the lights flashing. Was there some sort of bypass done to it?

Kudos to that guy!

It takes a certain kind of man to tolerate a spiteful woman he's chosen to spend the rest of his life with and to mother his children and that's a man with a big heart!
