Last night I installed a new intake and now my car won't start until I pull the battery. Any idea whats causing the issue? It wasnt like this before. Its an 05 Z51. Any help is greatly appreciated

Cold air intake or intake manifold? Is MAF plugged in?

i'm confused. you state that it won't start until you "pull" the battery? what exactly are you doing when you pull the battery and it starts?

C6Goyo

The car won't start after sitting for a little. When I unplug the battery it resets everything and it'll start. I'm confused as well.

How do you "unplug" a battery?

C6Goyo

You remove the power cable from it... Disconnect it

haljensen

So, if you disconnect the negative cable then reconnect it everything works?

If so I suspect you have a bad cable connection, probably at the battery but could be either end of whichever cable you are disconnecting..

yeah...sounds like a relay may be sticking. may want to check the wires at the starter also.

Is it an 05?

When it doesnt want to start do you hear the column unlock? or is it just quiet and the gauges sweep but no starting?

It is an 05, im gonna be buying this and hope it fixes the issue. Thanks to everyone for the help!!!
