Default AntiTheft column lock HELP!!!
I have a 2002 C5--steering column lock bypass relay installed (twice). Still shuts down fuel pump frequently. Anyone know how I can disable this completely? Very frustrated. Also, BCM has been replaced as well.

I have unplugged the column lock and replaced it with a relay bypass. The fuel pump shuts off intermittenly upon startup. Sometimes I will also get a service ABS/TCS light, but very rarely.

If the fuel pump shuts off after start up, that is NOT a column lock problem. Even if you did have a security issue, the PCM would disable the fuel injectors, not the pump. Behavior consistent with the 2mph shutoff issue, requires you to put the car in gear, and attempt to move...then it shuts down.
