Sounds like the passlock is tripped. Sometimes you can turn the key to on and leave in on for 20 min to reset. (Most of the time it killed my batt) I put a charger on it just in case. After the 20 min don't turn it off, turn it to start. My problems were from a car starter in the end.

oh yeah hey try this then get in the truck make sure the doors are locked. put your e-brake on......then try to start it with your command start first. im thinking that the unit may have f-ed and it need to have all permissives cleared before start is initiated

Thanks, I did try that and for 15min did not work, but if I put key in real fast and turn to start will turn over 2 time or so and once it reads the key
the truck will just shut down.

Well this is the first thing that happen, could be worst.

Thanks for the info.

My '01 GMC did that to me once. I shut the remote starter off (little toggle switch under the dash) and left it for an hourish. Fired right up again. I don't get it, but it worked.

Good luck.
When you get it fixed let us know what it was.
Gmc security is great most of the time but if it ever screws up when I'm on the way to the hills I'll come unglued!
If it screws up in the mountains and I can't get back to work I'll just give it a big hug LOL

That is why I got the factory starter in the F---in first place for the diesel.
I will let you all know why, and what the fix for my truck is.
