Cobalt This sporty compact was faced with the difficult job of replacing the popular Cavalier, but whether the base model, or the supercharged SS is chosen, is has made for a great replacement.

Default 2005 cobalt cranks but will not start

2005 cobalt cranks but will not start. Alarm coincidentally stopped sounding of horn during entry of vehicle. Noticed alarm icon not flashing when I exit car. Alarm icon turns off upon entry.
Fuel pump is okay,likewise,battery,starter,and alternator.Seems as though "Anti-Theft" may be causing start failure.
Any advice would be appreciated. :-)

Talking Here is how I fixed it

Try to start,if no start leave key in on position. Wait 10-12 minutes,turn key off for 5 seconds. Repeat 2 more times. Worked for my (crank but won't start issue).
Has to reset "Anti=Theft" system.
