Default 1995 Trans Am Trouble starting car! Help!

I'm having trouble starting my '95 Pontiac Trans Am. I just bought the car, and every time i go to start it I have to turn the key several times over and over so it will start. All the lights come on the dash, the car just starts randomly.

Also sometimes i'll start it and the check engine light will come on along with the strange problem of my blinkers totally being in-operative.

What do you think i should do?

Welcome!

It could be a VATS issue, or could be your Ignition Switch.

It's time to check for B+ at your Clutch Pedal Position switch (M6) or your Park-Neutral Safety switch (A4) and your VATS relay (both). Also, check for a proper GND path at VATS relay - that was the root cause of MY car's no-start condition.

Good Luck!
