6th Gen ('00-'05): Problems starting
So my 2001 SS has been having problems starting lately according to the title of this thread haha. So it began back in november, I was taking the monte out that night for the first time in a week or so. I climb in to start it up and as soon as I try to start it the whole interior goes black. No light on anywhere everything electrical just died. So I pull my truck out of the driveway and jump it figuring it may have been the cold and the fact it had been sitting for a while. Climb in five minutes later to try it and starts right up no problem. I was still a little confused since the battery is only a year old and has suffecient CCA to get the job starting her up done. Fast forward to a couple weeks ago and I go to pull it in the garage a few hours after driving around and whaddya know I go to start it the electronics die again. So I left it outside to the snow storm that was coming. a few days later I go to jump it in -5 weather, I open the door to pop the hood and notice the dome light was on so I figure what the heck Ill try it and boom starts up no complaining. Then last Friday I go to fuel up and after Im all filled up I hop in try to start it and yep, The darn thing refused to start everything electric refused to work. After a few minutes of sitting everything came back and I tried to start it yet again, same story as before the electronics die. I got out checked the battery connections and everything was how it should be, That was all I could really access since I was at the gas station. I called my brother and he towed me home where its sat ever since, power locks and all work again but I havent been able to look at it. So I guess on to my question. Any Ideas on what could be the source of my problem? I hate electrical problems lol
