so im new to these forums and im not good with cars i dnt work on them or nothing. my stepdad is a mechanic but only on fords. when it comes to chevys i might as well have an import. anyway. my problem is that my security light came on in my dash & im worried. i googled it but i didnt get a straight answer. it still starts and runs just fine. i just want to know if there is something i can do or something my stepdad can do to fix it. from what google said it could be caused by removing the battery. well i did have a new battery installed a little over a month ago but the light came on a few days ago. could that be the reason?? any help is welcomed. thanks in advance.

Is it flashing or on steady. Everything i found said the car wouldn't start but you said its running fine. I'm not really sure what to tell you. Might need to stop by a mechanic and see if they can suggest something. Maybe hit a local parts store and and see if they would code scan it for you. Also look for a 'Chilton' manual. Its a good DIY book that might be able to walk you through some basic stuff.

Mine is on and steady. From what I read when it's flashing the car won't run. But mine is running fine.

ill bet its just a connection thats come undone, or a short.

Hopefully it is a short or a connection that's come undone. I just got home & my stepdad has a device that can pull codes to see what's wrong so tomorrow I'll hopefully know what's wrong

hey if you plan on getting into working on cars, learn how to use that. itll be youre best friend

in a little update. the device to pull codes said there was nothing wrong with my car. but the light is still on. but i can still drive it. so tomorrow since its my day off from work im going to the chevy dealer to see if they can see whats wrong.
