except it's not turn the key on and wait a few seconds and Voila ... not evan Vivian.
What you are supposed to do is to crank the engine momentarily (do not start) then let the key go to the run position for 10-12 minutes. Then turn the key off for approx five seconds and repeat. Do one more time after the second time for a total of three times. At the end of the third one turn the key off for 30 seconds, the passlock should be relearned and start the car after the shut off time.

Thanks So So much, I never knew about such a thing, and the previous owner told me specifically that there was NO security in this thing.
(now, where are my side-cuts? I wanna cut that security system out of my car!!! lol )

Man, that is awesome that you got it fixed. I've never heard of such a thing. My son is looking at some used Saturns online because he thinks he's going to settle his lawsuit within a couple of weeks. As much as I don't like Chevy, I do like the Saturns. They're great cars and pretty easy to work on too.
