2001 Cavalier won't start - need meaning of warning codes Virginia Shemeliuk 12-10-07  
We bought our daughter a 2001 Cavalier (with only 86,000 kilimeters on it). The car won;t start and she says that on the right side of the driver's part of the dashboad there is a warning light on. It is the light right above the ABS warning light. Does anyone know how I can find out what this warning light means? She's 1800 miles away in a spot where there is no mechanic so there's a problem. Thanks

Does it spin over but just won't start? Some of these have an anti-theft system. Put key in, turn to on position, wait 15 to 30 minutes then try to start the car. This is providing that there is a anti-theft light on flashing with the key in the on position. This may help or may not. I would need more information.

98 z24 Cavalier transmission was swapped and now wont start, just cranks but no start.

The theft system light is on, not blinking just stays on, tried the 10 minute thing even waited up to an hour.

Dealers says they tried resetting it, but still wont start.

The light you are discribing, if it looks like a little pump and is yello in colour it is a check engine light for fuel,emmisions and ignition. this usually requires a diagnostic tool or a lot of trial and error. My brothers 01 cavalier has the same problem.
