Questioni have a 1996 cadillac sedan deville. It starts but only runs about 3sec. then shuts off. it says anti theft problem
AnswerOK, You have a problem with the anti-theft and PASS-KEY systems due to a fault in the:
ignition key.
Ignition key lock cylinder on the steering column.
A short or open circuit in the ant-theft system.
A faulty PASS-KEY Module.
The starter relay.
In MOST cases the fault is the PASS-KEY module, But NOT always. If you have some electrical and mechanical automotive skills or have a facility other than a Cadillac dealer who does your repair work, You need to e-mail: onlineautohelp@msn.com for numerous pictures and directives to fix this problem.
