So, I'm hoping some of the more informed on this forum can help with this. I can only hope it's possibly the ignition switch.
Intermittently, I'll get a no start condition in the Bravada. All gauges function except the gas gauage. Fuel pump does not start. Sometimes the "Avg Fuel Economy" reads 0. Twist the key forward to start and it acts like it should be turning over, but no crank. You can tell there's no current draw either, just everything shuts off like it's supposed to(radio, heat, etc). Fiddle fart with the key and nothing changes. What I've done twice now is to get out, remove the PCM1 and PCMB fuses from under the hood, reinsert them and it'll start. Of course by the time I try to start it again several minutes have gone by so it might be some sort of timeout thing.
What I noticed this last time though was this:
If I sat in the Bravada and used my remote to lock the doors, my security light came on and stayed on. I don't think it normally does this.
I remember someone saying a faulty/failing ignition switch can kick the security light on, but would it cause all those other symptoms too? Is the right fix a new ig switch?
