Big Problem Help Pleaseeee

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

1)I think its a known issue with the car Alot of people had the same problem,(search for a thread)
2)Having the battery diconnected will sometime cause the key security to loose its programming and has to be reprogrammed at the dealer using a tech 2
3)Read 2) for answer to 3)
4)The ground for the battery(Negative) in the trunk might be corroded and needs to be fixed.Check the ground terminal to chasiss resistance and make sure the battery is okay ,if not sure have it tested it needs to be 12 volts any less and it could cause problems.
