I went to start my 2002 malibu tonight and it wouldn't start, though all lights, radio and gauges came on. Jumped the battery, nothing. I suspect the anti-theft system since the light came on a few days ago, but went off and didn't come back on, but does flash when the car is put in On mode, without a full start. However, now when I try it, the car is getting no power whatsoever. Any suggestions?
I agree with Andrew about the battery and connections. If the battery is down, we're just spinning our wheels. You need to get it charged up.
My info says you have passlock security system, the majority of these systems are fuel injector disable, only. I looked at your starter wiring circuit, if my wiring diagram is correct, your security system has no control over starter motor circuit.
With passlock, it is the key cylinder that is matched to the security system, not the key. The key is just a mechanical key.

leave the key on for about 5 to10 min then try to start. Are reset to computer by leaving the key on for 10 min and try to start the vehical.Do this procese 3 time then it shold reset
SOURCE: car will not start-battery is fine
Try this Put your key in turn it on dont start wait 10 mins remove key wait 10 seconds repeat this a total of 3 times. Your theft light should go out. As long as the light is on your fuel system is disabled. If that dont work try a different key do the same thing. If that dont work a dealer needs to probably replace and reprogram your ignition switch and keys
SOURCE: dont know how to reset or bypass gm theft system car is not starting .It tries and quits.
this is one way to reset it :
first make sure the battery is fully charged , then do the following:
key in the ignition but do not crank the motor, just leave it at the
ignition mode for ten minutes ,then turn it off POSITION for 5 seconds then REPEAT again 2 more times. at the 3 rd time youre gonna notice the ANTI THEFT light on dash to blink. when doing the last step , remove key , inserted again and turn on motor , good luck , AJ
