- How to reset security on a Chevy impala… Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
Attempt to start the engine then release the key to ON (vehicle will not start).
Observe the SECURITY telltale, after approximately 10 minutes the telltale will turn OFF.
Turn OFF the ignition, and wait 5 seconds.
Try to turn it on.
Repeat steps two more times for a total of 3 cycles/30 minutes
I have a 2001 that had the same problem you had. The car had problems starting and when it did start, I was able to pull the key out while it was running. Eventually it wouldn't start at all. I think that because of the worn-out cylinder there was security issues preventing the car from starting. I wasn't looking forward to having to replace the key cylinder. Thanks to your 5-minute fix I don't have to. You saved me a lot of time and money. Thanks man.
Bro I been dealing with this problem for 6 years I have a 05 Impala and I went out and did what you did to yours in 3 mins and my car is cranking right up thanks man you are the best💯🍺🍺
Awesome !!! Make sure you run it to a fuse that only supply 12v with the switch is on. this way you don’t burn up your relay.

So what is the issue here? What would you fix besides running wire?
THANK YOU, the wire trick worked… starter is just clicking!
Definitely bad stater then
Good info. Hopefully this post is still monitored, as I have a question. I have a 2004 Impala that has this issue, but only intermittently. Was yours an intermittent issue or was it dead in the water? Mine did it about 6 months ago and started without further work on the issue after about a half hour.
It did it for the second time just yesterday. Again, started after 15 minutes or so. Then, this morning, it did it again. It does have the same symptoms as yours-no crank. I crossed it over at the solenoid, and it cranked but didn't start. I was told that was due to the security, and if I'd had someone holding the key in the crank position at the time I was jumping the solenoid over, that it would have started. At any rate, what are the chances of this being the same "fix" for mine? Any input greatly appreciated.
It started doing this intermittently then one day it wouldn’t crank at all.
Your car is sounds exactly how this one was. I believe you have the same issue. Try this!
Thank you so much! I'm gonna watch this again and be prepared the next time mine acts up! ❤
Ok, so I watched again. If I'm understanding right, you didn't leave the short white wire in the fuse box under the hood, from the 15A fuse to the pin 98 on the relay. Is that correct?
You ended up taking that back off and ran a wire from the 10A BCM fuse in the interior fuse panel out to the pin 98 on the relay? From the side of the fuse that was powered up when the key was in the on position (not the crank position), and no power when the key was off?
Or did you leave the short white wire from the 15A to the pin 98, as well? If so, was it powered regardless of key position?
Again, thanks so much. Very informative.
Hey Yall My uncle has a 2004 Monte carlo it did the same thing the crank relay did not have the 98 pin like the impala so I used the 86 pin to a fuse that had power when the switch was and it worked thanks man
Hoping you still check this video. Started having the same issue intermittently now it won’t crank at all and I’ve gone through two batteries now drained… I was looking to replace the fuse link that’s connected to that terminal to the left of the fuse box is this the same idea?
This car started doing it intermittently and then it wouldn’t crank at all. Sorry I’m not what fuse link you’re saying. My problem is that I was missing a positive at the crank relay.
So the fuse link I’m talking about is actually the signal wire u jumped if you look at the post right there to the left of fuse box there’s a green wire ( fuse link) that connects to signal wire then to the back of fuse box where 98 pin connects.I’m having same issue no crank without a jump wire. After doing this have u had any other electrical problems no wire burns or anything?
@@andreworman5702 My fusible link smoked. Prior to that the car started perfectly. Any idea how to replace it or bypass it?
Your supposed to jump Pin 87 & 30 That is the load side. The control side is 85 & 86 there is no 98 on a relay I think you were reading 86 upside down.
Pin 30 connects to the fusible link. Power to that relay comes through the fusible link. My fusible link smoked the last time I tried to star my car. When you apply voltage to 86 the relay sends power to the solenoid. I'm guessing my solenoid or starter is bad, unless my motor seized up. I'm going to reconnect the fusible link with a fuse and test it. Maybe I'll hear something. I looked at my relay. looks like he's actually jumping 87 & 30. Power goes from pin 87 to the solenoid. I have a dead short between 87 and ground. I believe my solenoid is shorted thus blowing the fusible link. I'll do more testing tomorrow.
I been thinking this for an hour reading all the comments everybody saying 98, I like thinking does nobody realize it’s 86 but then the wire he sends power to is 85.
1 have a 2001 impala . My pins are 85 upper left. 87 upper right. Lower left 30. Lower right. 98
I was wondering if he got mixed up. Or are they
numbered different for different years. @@JLE1177
Thank Man! Lol this was a BIG BIG BIG help! I been working on this for about a month and change out alot of stuff and still nothing! Even sent it to the dealership, THEY couldn't figure it out! You the TRUTH! I just ran different numbers. I ran 87 to that fuse. This all depends on where the shortage is at in them numbers. My vehicle was a 2002 Chevrolet impala. But thanks bro
Glad it help ! I also was working on this car for a while and I even change the pcm but nothing work. The only thing that did was what I show in the video. Just make sure that the positive that you put to pin 87 it’s from a fuse that supplies it when the switch is on on position.
Ayeee bro help me out lol its doing it again😭😭
@@poetthegreat4243 the pin that you jump was it the top left pin ?
I hook it up to The bottom left.
The top left and right, was grounds and the bottom left was positive and the right bottom didnt put out anything.
@@Rayspeed1 that Pcm wire... you ran that one also to the same relay?
I got a 2004 Impala an wen I got the car it came with no keys. I have the whole ignition switch. Out I'm basically down to wires I was wondering if Yu have a opinion on how to get it to crank ??? Bypass the security?
I got it to where it will ding an the radio an dash lights come on jus not able to get it to crank. ?
@@frankylagace216 if you got it with no key then just put a key cylinder, reset the security with the procedure that I put down in the description of the video.. if you do all that and you still get nothing then definitely just jump the left top pin of the crank relay with a positive that is fused. If you want to hot wire it then you would definitely have to bypass the security ..
Crank Relay switched out and sure enough, turned on. I still get the security light every once in a while when I’m driving. Is there a fix for it? I don’t think the description is a permanent fix for this. My biggest concern is that my car won’t crank again because of the security light.
My grandpa’s car(the one in the video)never have had a starting issue after I jumped the starting relay. I’ll check if his security light comes on.
@@Rayspeed1 id appreciate that a lot. It happens while I’m driving and usually takes less than 5 minutes to turn on. If it doesn’t turn on in the next 5 minutes, I don’t have security light problems during that whole car ride.
@@Rayspeed1UPDATE: I tried turning it on this morning only to get a no crank no start problem again. I had to wait in the car 10 minutes with the keys in the ON position and then back off, wait ten seconds and crank again. It turned on but now I know something is wrong with my car
So you ran that wire for the off position from that 20 amp fuse to the same connector you hsve the other wire connected to on the relay?
Basically… I used the BCM fuse and ran that wire to the stater relay. When the car is off it has no power and when I turn the car on it has power. That current is what activates the relay.
I have a 2004 impalla doing the same thing. When you used a jumper wire did you just leave the wire in it ( permanently?) It looked like there was no jumping wire in under the fuse/relay at the end if video....if you can reply lmk thank you.
Yes I left the wire on but I hook it up the another fuse that supply power only when the switch is on. I used the BCM fuse from inside the car. At the end of the video I showed where I hook it up to
@CubanBoy-sn8oh is the reason why a person has to use a jumper wire because the main computer box is bad ? Or is it just a bad relay for the crank sensor? If you put a new relay in there, would it also fix it or not ? Appeciate the feedback
@@mikedzingle9838 you could have a bad relay but in my case it seems to be a bad PCM. The car is still running perfect till this day without a problem.
Bro can I call you I have a question so when I jump it the jump wire all it does is turn it over and starts it but I can't leave jump wire in because when it's running it want to try and start again.
@@mikedzingle9838 you’re jumping the stater! Which is a different pin on the replay.( you’re doing what I showed in the beginning of the video) I put the jumper wire on another pin that keeps the car on. If your car is starting after you jump the starter with a wire then you don’t have the same issue that I have in this video. Your issue is going to be related with your key switch check if your fuses on the driver side dash by the door.
Gonna do this on a 2000 olds alero just put in a new starting and doing the same thing your is. Just wondering could a Seized alternator cause that no crank?
Hey, man, just watched your video. And thanks, you solved my problem. With no extras, LOL.💯👍👍👍
Do leave the wire on or take it off
You have to run it to a fuse that has power when the switch(key) is on. You cant get it from a fuse that supplies power all the time because that would keep your relay activated. It most likely drain your battery. In the end of the video I showed where I put the wire that runs to the stater relay. I used the bcm fuse located inside on the driver side fuse panel. I hope that I could help you.
The green wire fusible link burned on my 2003 Impala LS. The car started perfectly until that happened. What would cause that? I'm thinking the starter or solenoid shorted out for some reason.
Mine does this but eventually it will crank. Someone told me it was a loose starter wire but i dont kno if thats it cause it always starts when it wants to.
Where did you get the small connector wire to hook between the fuses ?!!! I might need that possibly, 2004 chevy Impala acts like it wants to turnover but it just doesn't crank, I've charged the battery, I've changed the starter, also I've put in a new alternator, so I'm thinking it's a fuse problem or something like that Can you help me please
Yes check your fuses and try jumping the starter relay. You can use any wire that fits in the pins.
@@Rayspeed1my fuse box sparked when i put the wires in, what could that be?
@@brettonwhitaker2764 which pin did you put the wire?
Hey so I’m having the same issue with my car Currently. I’m a little confused are you saying the issue with the car is that the security system needs to be rewired. That’s why it’s not starting? I have an 05 impala. Same issue
I’ve had this issue going on for a year now and no mechanic will help me because they said the issue has to happen in front of them in order to know what the issue is. I knew all my answers would be solved by going on YT! So should I just show my mechanic this video?
In the final clip did you lead that wire from the 15A to the back of fuse panel or spliced it with signal wire? Don’t want to fry my relay
Not from the 15Amp fuse under the hood. I only did that for testing purposes you don’t want to use that one because you’ll fry your relay. I grab the power from a fuse by the driver door. The fuse was for the bcm it only supplies power when the keys is on, from there I ran the wire to the relay.
So you ran a wire from drivers side door to the fuse box?
@@andreworman5702 yes correct
@@Rayspeed1what would have to replace or repair for this to work normal without a wire?
i have a05 impala need help . it was running now it wont start and my battery is dead. and also keep saying its hot and slow down when driving . and my fans to my ac stay on while my car is off
I just did it and the car started for the first time in a week but it was the bottom left terminal and I found switched power in the fuse box below the one you have opened. I used the engine devices fuse. Mine is an 04 also but my problem started while I was working on the brakes and they are not pumping up after replacing a rear brake line now that it's running. It's like the master cylinder is not moving fluid. I don't know if the abs system is causing the problem or the master cylinder took a dump. But the engine runs thanks to your trick. I knew there had to be a way to bypass the security but I didn't know where. Any tricks on my brake problem? Thanks for the info, it led me where to work at but just a different terminal.
Did you bleed the brakes?
When doing the test, do you leave the key in the on position?
Yes sorry I forgot to mention it
I have a question for you. On my 2000 impala, starter is good, battery is good. I checked the holes where the Crank relay goes. On the left, I got both positive working and on the right side only top (negative) hole is working. But the right bottom hole negative is not working. Do you know when the hole gets activate to negative. thanks
So you’re getting the 12v from battery bottom left pin, you’re getting 12v from the PCM top left pin. You got the right top pin that is a negative ( that goes straight to your starter ). The only thing that you’re missing is your Signal that is your bottom right pin. To test this pin you can use a test light, hook one side of the lead to positive and the other side to the pin ( bottom left) . Have someone else turn the key to on and see if you get the ground. Let me know if it helps.
@@josevillalobos8425 yes have someone help you. You’re not seeing the signal voltage because you will only see it when the key is on the “start position”.
@@josevillalobos8425 yes you should if the key is sending the signal then your test light will turn on. this would mean that everything is looking good with the cranking relay.

What is this wire you are using and where can I get this wire from
I was using a amplifier wire, you can get it from Walmart
Hello, just found you video, I have a 2003 chevy venture van no crank no start , replaced the ignition switch cylinder, the stater is good all the relays are good all the fuse are good, the neutral switch is good , on the starter relay I get voltage on pin 85 with the key on that is the positive signal. pin 86 suppose to the negative signal coming from the PCM, the PCM is not sending the negative signal to activate the relay. I apply a negative signal with a power pro and the motor turns but not start. The PCM gets battery voltage and I check one of the map sensor and I get a 5 volts reference, I believe the PVM is ok but I can figure out why is not sending the negative voltage to the starter relay, Also I try to connect the scan tool and is not communicating with the PCM, Do you have any clues. Thank you for your time
With the key on, do you see your check engine light? It sounds like a bad PCM.
@@Rayspeed1 Thank you for you reply, Yes the check engine light is on, it stay on when I try to start that car and all other lights turn off.
@@MiguelRodriguez-pz8wi then most likely your pcm is good like you said but you have to find a way to communicate to it. What type of scan tool do you have?
@@Rayspeed1 I have a Launch Creader V2+ and a Actron pocket scan ,they both say no link on communication after doing the initial scan. I took off the connector pin on the PCM and the wire from the port to the PCM pin ohms good
Thanks for the info, it was all a great help!!!
I just wanted to ask if you have the same issue where you can pull out the key while the car is running. Thanks.
No I didn’t have the same problem but I would definitely replace the lock cylinder because the passlock sensor reads the key resistance with the wrong reading your security Will activate and it will cause not to crank no start issue. Try leaving the key in it and resetting the security system maybe it will crank. You can also try bypassing the passlock with a resistor at the key ignition switch or also doing what I did in this video. But the whole key cylinder is $21 in Amazon it comes with 2 keys and it’s super easy to replace. Then you have to do a re- learning process (resetting the security). I hope this helps let me know if you need any help
Buen vídeo a mí me pasó lo mismo y con ese video lo pude arreglar
Cuál fue el problema entonces amigo?
Hey Cuban did all that but is cracking but not starting turning over in account position any though my friend. No not jumping new batterie
Is it cranking with the key ? Or are you jumping it ?
@@Rayspeed1 hey sorry for bad spelling. I turn it over to start nothing but go to turn it off and it turns over in the acc. Position but will not run. Yes used the key I did the reset also mine is a 05. Thanks for getting back buddy .
@@rickmattingly8081 My pleasure Rick ! It sounds to me like your key cylinder is missed up. I would start with that for sure they’re cheap.
My.2008 Chevy Impala is throwing code p0641 says reduce engine power. It only wants to start when it's cold. I couldn't hear the fuel pump kick on at all when I tired the key then when I heard it it started and I could reve it to 2,000 rpm. But earlier it would stall of u gave it gas if we got it started . I have changed crankshaft position sensor oil pressure sensor n also had the reduce engine power come on cuz of bare wire that got fixed to now I'm dealing with this. Originally it was low on oil but now it's saying reduce engine power mode and I can't get the code to clear. Any ideas do you think it's the fuel pump? Plus it's reading code p0449 but I always had the EVAP code on since I bought it and it never caused problems with it running
Throttle body is bad
So did you bypass the security? I have a 05 impala and the dealer told me nothing that helps. Just want to get it to crank. Will try this tomorrow!
I try everything before I found this solution. I jumped pin #98 (top left pin) in the crank relay with a 10amp fuse. Make sure that you use a fuse. This is another way to bypass the security that worked for me . before that I try to bypass the security by putting a resistor between the yellow and black wire at the passlock sensor location at your key switch , it did not work at all. So I definitely recommend to you to try what I did. If you need any help let me know.
@@Rayspeed1 will let you know how it goes tomorrow!

So I'm trying to diagnose why my 04 won't crank with the key. It does start just fine if I put 12v on the top right pin of the starter relay but not if I jump the top right and lower left. Then I get nothing. Any ideas?
You’re missing the positive that is from your lower left pin, that one supposed to come straight from your battery 12v so check fuses and wire. When you put straight 12v to your top right pin you’re just basically jumping your starter.
So im supposed to run the wire from to right crank rly to any 12v fuse bro
@@osoprizzell7322 yes from any 12v that turn off and on with the key.
@@Rayspeed1 The fusible link goes to the lower left which is pin 30. The top right goes to the solenoid. My fusible link went up in smoke. I have a dead short to ground from the top right pin. I believe my solenoid is shorted.
Hey thank you for this video it helped get a friends car running.

I had that problem not long after we got our '04 Impala new. Took it to the dealership because it was under warranty. Their mechanics could not figure it out after keeping the car for over a week. They had to call Chevrolet corporate to find out what it might be. They had never run into that problem before. It turned out to be the crankshaft position sensor. Once they replaced it, the car fired right up.

Mine won’t even show any signs of battery and the battery’s not dead like it won’t even show anything on the dashboard what could this mean?
Check you “ battery “ fuse
I did this but my car dont try to turn over like this one does with the wire it still just clicks i tested the starter they said it was good
You have to go to your stater and check to see if you’re getting 12v at the big red wire
It works👍👍
So does that mean that the relay is bad?
In my case no, I did try replacing it but it didn’t work. I substitute the power circuit with a cable that I end up running from the bcm fuse beside the driver side door fuse box.
Did you recently replace a water pump on the vehicle?
Not at alll
What fuse did u use to crank car with 98
You have to use a fuse that will supply 12v when the switch is on. That way you the relay is not always active so I use the Bcm fuse inside on the driver side that supply 12v when the switch is on. You can temporary use any fuse to see if it will work.
Thank you !!❤
Looks like you connected the positive to pin 85. Top left pin front view.
