Places like Pep Boys will perform a free starting/charging test. This will test the battery and alternator.

I think you should probably get a new key or have it checked. Alot of the new Chevy's have a chip in the key. If you insert the wrong key or what the computer might see as wrong (bad key) then it shuts off the fuel for around 3 minutes. Thus the reason why you cannot start it. This sounds "far out", but I had a similiar problem on a 95 Monte Carlo. Also, it would not hurt to have it checked at the dealer and put on a computer to have the wiring checked out.

You need to take it back to the guy you stole it from... Just kidding!! A couple of things I can think of will cause this. One; a low battery or bad battery will do this. It is a warning to keep and eye out for the battery going totally out, as this could cause you to get locked out of your car, and with a dead battery it is not an easy feet to get in. Two; Your voltage is falling below acceptable levels as in with a bad alternator. I believe it is designed into the vehicle to keep one from taking their own car when the battery goes dead. Look for a voltage drop, such as corroded battery terminals, slipping fan belt not turning the alternator fast enough to keep up with demand at times. Find this problem and you will solve the mystery! Good luck!

It sounds like your battery is going bad. When cars have a built in alarm system when the battery is bad the alarm messes up or its your alarm system. When the alarm system is messed up it keeps the car from starting. Also when the alarm is messed up the car dies out.

It shounds like you have a short some where in the wireing OR your starter's going out? and I'm a woman - just a guess.

Try cleaning the contact points at each door.
