L200 anti theft light flashes and car stalls
Hello, I have a 2003 Saturn L200 and was driving home Monday and as we were pulling away the anti theft light started flashing and the car stalled out, we were able to start it twice more but it kept stalling. on the 3rd stall the car refused to start and I had to get it towed to a mechanic. I went back and tried starting it again before they took it into the garage for service but it still refused to start. The mechanic tried several different things but nothing worked, when he turned the key ahead it wouldn't even show how much fuel was in the tank or anything. He thought it was the BCM so I went and bought one and he installed it, the car started up! I drove the car home on the hwy approx 30 KMs and she was perfect! Later I went to the store, when I came out and started the car and attempted to drive out of the parking lot, the anti theft started blinking and the car stalled again. I was able to start it up several times over and over as it kept stalling on my way back from the store but each time I was able to turn it over and get going again for a few more minutes and then the anti theft would do it again. I am totally lost at what the issue is right now. I did notice after the BCM was replaced, my keyless entry was no longer working and I can only assume it's because the BCM I installed maybe needed to be programmed for my car, or the previous car it came out of maybe didn't have the remote entry as a factory option like mine did. The car still started until this morning when my b.f went out and tried it before work but now it doesn't even start, it just turns over again and again. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I love this car but I've been through hell and back with it. This is just one of many issues I've had. If anyone could help me I would be so very grateful! Thanks in advance to everyone
