2000 C5 Automatic .. Same Old Problems :(
First, I apoligize for putting this in a NON COLUMN LOCK FAQ ... but I've unfortunately already had the Original GM recall, they won't do the new recall and I don't know what to do next, if the Bypass will even work, ?
2000 Automatic C5 . Original Recall performed in 00 or 01 ... ONLY in cold temperatures I get " PULL KEY wait 10 Seconds " .. I pull the key, on the first insertion, get the standard " SERVICE COLUMN LOCK " which cuts the fuel off if I choose to drive, so I pull the key in and out a few times or start and stop it, and usually works with in 30 seconds of doing so ...
I went to the Dealer with my VIN a few monthes back, they said COLUMN LOCK Recall was done originally 5 years ago and that I'm not elgible for any " recall ", or that my vin doesn't bring one up ...
What to do know .. ?
If GM put a bypass in years ago that apparantly doesn't work, what to do ? will a $50 kit from one of your guy's sites work ? What are my options, I just want to take care of this 911 ... Thanks for everything, c5alex ... can't wait for a c6 .. please no electrical problems

Clean the pellet, if not ask to see the old service record from the computer. See if the plate and re-program were done.
