Do u have the correct fuel pressure & are the injectors firing?

Check the vent in the gas cap. Vacuum in the tank will build up and prevent fuel flow till relieved. When it won’t start, take off the gas cap and listen for the sound of air rushing into the tank.

Make sure battery has a full charge and connections all good. Does it start and run? Do the brake lites work? Usually, you step on the brake in order to shift. With some shift interlock systems there is a bypass button by the shifter, You press that button to shift into neutral with brake set. I don't know if this vehicle has that bypass button, you'll have to look. If the vehicle is still sitting along side the road, call a tow truck, have them take it home or to a repair shop. It's no fun trying to work on a vehicle along side of a busy street.

Sounds like a ground issue...Check your battery post and ground wires..Also could be vapor locked..Next time it stalls loosen your gas cap...If you here air suction going back into your car and if starts up that could be the problem..Your vapor canister is clogged causing the pressure in your gas tank to become greater than your gas pump...Then the car shuts off until the pressure in gas tank goes back down..

Resistance problem , pulling too much current . Voltage drop test the circuit . Videos on youtube .

Not fuses or BCM, I think you have a bad cluster-the panel itself.

The wires from the ignition switch probably has this spliced into them. Remove/cut ALA990k out of harness and match the same color wires and splice them back together.

This doesn't make sense a cat con should last the life of the car. For a cat con to go bad there must be excessive heat in the system to melt the material in the cat con. For two cat con to failure there's something wrong.

No, the fuel gauge not working wouldn't have anything to do with your not starting problem , probably the gauge is bad . With the SECURITY light lit , anti-theft system problem ! Service light ????? Service engine soon ? Or service vehicle ? With the light's on code's DTC'S - diagnostic trouble codes are stored . Have it checked , don't guess as to what the problem is. This would prevent the buying of un needed parts .

I had the problem and when i took it in they wanted a ridiculous amount of money to fix it.. It is the security system failing. i did a ton of research and found a module that u can install yourself that will bypass it and allow the car to start every time.. i did mine like 5 years ago and i havent had an issue since.. you car is on the list year make and model for having this problem i guess its really common in GM vehicles .. Check out this website they have great customer service and if for some reason it does not work they will refund you 100% of your money!! I hope this helps ya i know how frustrating it is. http://vatspasslockpasskeysecurityhelp.com/ Do It Yourself GM Security bypass
