Anti theft light on, no start
Has anyone had this happen to them? The start button is green and when pressed I only hear the fuel pump and then nothing,, then the dash has an engine light for 5 seconds , then all the lights come on but only the anti theft light stays on along with the engine light and seat belt light..
The reason I think its an anti theft issue is cause the light is on in accessory mode as well, it never use to do that..
I have another thread and everyone thinks it's the starter but the title is about no cranking and I'm not sure if people realized the anti theft light in the pictures
Also , I put a brand new oem ac delco battery in yesterday cause I got it for free when the store couldn't do a load test on my 6 month old battery due to their tester not working
Thanks in advance for the help

UPDATE :
So it ended up being an ecu issue, the car threw a bunch of codes and the anti theft locked me out .
My tuner Chuck Cow saved my *** and spent over an hour remotely logged into my car and laptop trying a bunch of different things and now it's up and running!
He still thinks the ecu might eventually fail because it seems to have a memory issue
But hopefully it was just a glitch

Strange..... Never saw that before in a ZR1 or an E67 controller..... VERY strange... Keep a close eye on it.
Thank you.
