Sorry I'm guessing myself! Once I reconnect the negative on the battery it will start then dies in about 2 seconds and will start the second time and same result. After the two times the starter will not engage until I pull the negative from the battery and resets. The reason I don't think it is the SKREEM is that both keys will activate the alarm and lock and unlock the doors and the trunk. Please let me know more questions you might have.
