My 97' Lumina won't start at all... all the lights come on when the key is in the ignition but when you turn it over, absolutely nothing happens.Could this be the actual chip in the passkey?

Asked by zakkweets Mar 18, 2014 at 01:19 PM about the 1997 Chevrolet Lumina

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

We checked the batter, it's fine, we checked the terminals for looseness and/or corrosion, they seem fine. However, the security light comes on when you try and turn it over... Could this be the passkey and the chip embedded on it causing this problem? I simply am not in a position to spend any money right now as we just had a baby and times are tough up here in Canada

I have a '99 Chevy Lumina LTZ, and for the first couple of years that I had it it would never really heat up until the past two years, when I noticed the temperature gauge actually moving. Anyway, when it heats up(needle in the center or right in the gauge), my car shakes and it shifts really hard. Any ideas? It has 172,xxx on it, and I'd like to get another year or so out of it without replacing anything major. 2 Answers
