Car Not starting ... electrical ques.

Hello Guys,

I bought a 2006 cobalt LS that had a small fire in the trunk.
I bought the car in a non-running condition. The fire department cut teh wires going to the fuse box. I connected everything and now the problem is.

1. the key is stuck in the ignition and wont be released.
2. the car will not start "no sound of cranking".
3. sometime it shows the Key light on the dashboard when i am trying to start.
4. I connected the scanner and it tells me missing Negative. where is the negative wires???


please any help is appreciated or maybe if someone got the wiring diagram for the body that would be great.

does teh car has a ignition cutoff system or a code i need to input to start the car.... I tried cranking the car manualy and teh engine turned perfectly.

Thank you

WOW....I wish you the best of luck! I would never attempt something like that but then again I'm not the best at working on cars either.

If the car has a factory keyless entry they prolly fried it when they cut all the wires......this would explain why the key symbol on the dash comes on when you try to start it....another thing that could be wrong is that the car no longer recognizes the chip in the key and wont let you start it.....Just a thought..........Later
