anti theft?
 

so the other day I go to start my car and it wont start becuase it wasnt gettign fuel so I took it to the dealership and he said my anti theft devie turned off the fuel to the car ebcuase it detected soemthing wrong but I didnt even touch my car beside trying to put a cold air intake on it, so I have a question, when I go to put neons on my car is my car gonna tihnk that somethings wrong and turn off my fuel to the car???
thanks

Lol.. no.

y would it turn my car off then in the first place?

That's probably not the problem. If this indeed happened IMMEDIATELY after you installed your intake, why the intake would trigger your "anti-theft device" is beyond me. If it was the intake the theory would be that you messed up your IAT sensor and caused the engine to run lean. But since it sounds like it runs fine now..

perhaps it's the car's way of telling you not to do something stupid like put neons on it.

haha, i agree.

car would still run if the IAT sensor was bad, your idle would be like 2k RPMs tho, i just had to replace mine

it happened like a week after i put the cai intake, what fuse did u guys wire ur interior neons to?

My car pulled that "Security" B.S. too, 3 days after I put my CAI on. thank god the tow truck driver knew what was going on, saved me a tow, apparently he gets a lot of call for this on Aleros.

i have my interior neons hooked up to a switch, my underglows are hooked up to the dome light fuse

i thought only the dealership could turn it back on?

No, you just gotta leave the car in the "on" position for 10 mins.

if your security light is on and your car just keeps cranking and wont turn over, you have to leave your car in the "on" position for 15 mins. after that check if the security light is still on, if its not the car should just start fine

Never had that problem, even when I put the CAI on my car... just changed it to a WAI and still no problems. but now I know what to do in case this happens. thanks!
