      Rocket Scientist my daughter has called me 3 times stuck saying the hummer won’t start and the key is stuck and she can’t get it out, then 5 minutes later it cranks , is this the same issue you guys are having or is it turning over but not starting?

  • @billynicgorski1
    @billynicgorski1 Před 3 lety +5

    Its the connector at the end of the cylinder that gets corroded , take it apart and spray it with contact cleaner . I had this proplem for years and i did a deep dive and found the solution. 7 years later all good.

    • @RocketScientist
      @RocketScientist  Před 3 lety +1

      no kidding? I'll definitely try that. I guess I should have used the KISS method... Keep It Simple Stupid.

    • @billynicgorski1
      @billynicgorski1 Před 3 lety +2

      3 screws under the steering wheel .. 2 screws holding the sensor on .. turn the key and it pops out .. then you have access to the male/female connector and just spray it with electrical cleaner .
      That is where the corrosion lies that make it seems someone is stealing your H3 .. no need to replace anything.. 🙌🏻

  • @dancing_on_glass46
    @dancing_on_glass46 Před 2 lety +1

    The H3 lock out starts by using the acc to listen to the radio or whatever you do with the switch on that position. It happened to me after work and at lunch time I listened to the radio. After work I just had a big nice ride just turning over and not cranking. So appreciative of folks like you who share for people like me.

  • @citadelboi
    @citadelboi Před 2 lety +3

    Definitely worked for me this morning. I saw this video last week and what I did was turn it to on then attempted to start it. That didn’t work. Today I turned it one click to acc, waited three seconds then turned it to the on position and waited 3 seconds and it cranked right up 💪🏾

    Hi, everybody.Fresh experience to share. It happened to me, yesterday, 2006 Hummer H3. The battery went low, could not unlock with the fob. Unlocked with the key. Changed the battery, the alarm went off. Tried to start, no luck. So, I disconnected the battery and left overnight. Meanwhile, I found this video and got aware of the issue, for which I am immensely obliged to the author. Was prepared to do the 10 min-10 seconds trick. Next morning, I reconnected the battery and it started right away.Thanks again for sharing experience!Val

    • @RocketScientist
      @RocketScientist  Před 4 lety +2

      Just remember to do it every time you start it! Another quick tip. These Hummers get real finicky with even the slightest drop in voltage. If it's doing it that many times in one day, check your battery. It might be on its way out.

  • @InCountry6970
    @InCountry6970 Před rokem +1

    I am sorry I am so late on this, but I too have had this dreaded problem. The dealer changed out the entire lock and sensor (one unit) and it worked for years. Now it is acting up once again and the dealer stated the three second from ON to START and it does work just as you stated. He claimed all GM dealers know this simple trick. Your aging assumptions on stuff is correct and those rotating magnets in the cylinder get weak over time and don't their thing either.
    I won't hold my breath on a recall

    • @dhruvajandhyala3483

  • @uncherby
    @uncherby Před 5 lety +3

    Another good tip, don't put your key in your pocket with anything magnetic (even credit card or time card). It puts just enough magnetism on the key to cause a failure.

    I think it may take a little bit of time(4-5) seconds, for the computer to recognize the key/fob. If you are in a hurry and slam the key in and crank, it goes into failsafe mode and shuts off the fuel pump. I use this start procedure every time and have not had one bit of problem.

There is no security code showing on the dash but I sure as heck am giving this a try. Quite embarassing when at the gas pump and have to stay an extra 20 minutes I thought. I will try the ten minute thing if this doesn't work. TKS.
