Lately i ahve been haveing to jump the car with a with touching some part of
the starter ( and it starts) Can't get it to start by the key , then yesterday
when i was starting my car . i got it started but even after it was started it
kept trying to turn over and over . ( THis contiued long after i took the key out
of the ignition. Before i got to the battery to disconnect it, there was slight
smoke coming from the starter. Anything would help me out . I have the
money just need to know what i need to purchase ( Replaced the starter not
even a year ago, and it drove fine for the longest time. So i cant see that
being the problem.

My car once lost all power because the bracket to hold the battery down was touching one of the terminals, it had come loose so it started smoking and sparking and wouldnt start. Maybe check that out. sorry if this doesnt help just a thought though.

I have something to state: I've asked How to bypass the Anti Theft system in my car. The responses I am receiving are becoming rude. I'm not trying to steal my own car. The car doesn't start anymore. It almost turns over but doesn't stay start. Instead of having to replace the Fuel Pump I was trying to reset the Anti Theft System. I asked how to by pass the system and am being accused of trying to steal cars. If I had the money to take it to the dealer, I would!!! I can't seem to reset it if that is why it is not starting. So ya thanks for judgments!?m 9 Answers

I wanted to by pass / reset the Anti Theft System to see if it would start, before I have to replace the Fuel Pump. All I have received is snide comments and accusations of stealing cars.

Hello I have a 2001 chevy cavalier and yesterday morning I tried to start my car and turned over the key and it did absolutely nothing. There was no clicking or winding noises only noise I heard was my fuel pump kicking on. All my lights are working normal and so is my radio. I tried jumping it just to make sure it wasn't an issue with my battery but it still wouldn't start. What could be the problem? 9 Answers
