There is a security feature that if u dont have the original key the car thinks ur stealin it so it stops the gas flow & won't start. U have to wait 5 minutes sometimes if u lock the door from the outside then unlock it that will turn off the light, sometimes. Is there a way to disable it easily or do I have to spend all that money to have a dealer fix it or have them make a key? Please help it is very annoying & frustrating cause it doesn't always happen but usually when i'm running late or it's 100 degrees out. Thank you, Chrissy

    take the key that works to a gm dealer and they will make a key for about 35.
