Default 95 lumina wont turn over

It will turn over when the starter is jumped with a screwdriver. It will start and dies when srewdriver is removed. I have tried both set of keys,still no go.

What should I do next ?

Is the security light on? If so, try this, turn ignition on, and leave it on for 10 minutes or until security light goes out. Without turning the key off, start it. If it starts its an issue with security system (imagine that)

Thanks kevan,

The security light is on. I left the key on, in three minutes the light went out. Tried to start, wouldnt turn over. Next I turn key on, went in the house came out 17 minutes later turned the key, and it STARTED ! ! Every thing is fine now, starts every time. The only bad thing is I went and bought another work car because this one quit. Could have save $3000 if I would have known this free fix. Thanks Again, Buzz
