    Im lost here. i have a 2003 Grand Prix GT. Its having starting issues. Now before everyone goes and says its your BCM I have already replaced it i also tried to reset by doing the 10 min in run position and all that.. but heres whats up i turn the key to start it and nothing just a click under the dash... all lights light up headlights turn on.. everything but it wont turn over.. sometimes it will if i keep messing with it but most of the time nothing. im not sure if its the ignition switch or what.. also the security system passkey is working properly... the red blinking light turns off when i put the key in the ignition just as its supposed to.. if i pull the key out it starts blinking.. put it back in it stops.. also if i turn it to run position and get under the car and arc the starter it will start and stay running.. so this is where im thinking its that ignition switch thingy.. let me know what you guys think. i hope its not the computer... let me know..

    Man... I can't sell my 03. It truly is a good car. I may complain about it, but it's ran since day 1 and treats me...fairly well I suppose. It's the little things. But I trust it to go anywhere in the world.
