Security sytems quirks
I didn't know where else to post this,sorry. Lately the securty system has been acting up and not letting the car start. After messing with the remote, or manually unlocking, or even putting it into nuetral, then it will start. Just started this and it isn't all the time. I don't think it is the remote. The car is a 2003 SS Pace Car.

Do you have a remote start? Sometimes they can cause problems.
Does it turn over, or do nothing?
When its not starting, does the security light flash? If not then you may have another problem other then the anti-theft

What security system are you talking about?
When you go to start the car, does the security light in the message center pop up? Or do you have an aftermarket security system hooked up?
If it's the security light, start searching for the term: Passlock

No remote start and it is the factory system. It has happened twice to the wife as she drives the car primaraly. It will not crank. She said that the first time the security light was on in the dash cluster but I don't remember if it was the second time. At first I thought it was the neutral safety switch but I talked her through it and it wasn't. She locked and unlocked the doors then it started. The second time though it wouldn't work and she put the car in neutral and it started. She had already tried the locks the second time before calling me.

I think it was the battery. Wife and I went out of town for our anniversary and car ran fine then one morning needed a jump. Drove 3 hours home yesterday, parked overnight in the garage, this morning dead. Put a new battery in today. Tech tried to say that my alternator wasn't putting out enough amps. I told him that if it is the alternator I'll fix it later. Car has started and ran fine all day while making numerous stops running errands. This place has a reputation for trying to sell "extra" needed stuff.
