well, I checked out that shifter cable and wiring harness that you were talking about. Although there was wear on the shifter cable it seemed to be contacting bracket that the wiring harness attached to, and not the wiring harness itself. I still disconnected and closely inspected the harness and the wiring, but I couldn't find any damage (and I REALLY looked), there was only dirt. so I cleaned it then gave it a try...still won't engage the starter
    thanks, though, that gave me more ideas

I just had our 2001 aztec serviced by Maltbie Chevrolet in Lake George,N.Y. for all of the same issues you are having. At first they thought it was the IGNITION SWITCH so they replaced that. It still was not sending the signal from there to the ECM to start. So they followed the wires from the IGNITION SWITCH towards the ECM. At this point they explained in the bill after removing the protective cover off of the wires they noticed some corroding and while inspecting the wires some of them were corroded and a few were broken through. They used some G.M. splice kits to fix the connections and low and behold it started. So they re tried my Ignition switch aand mine was fine so they removed the new one to save me some money. The bill was $306.00 and it is running perfect now. It also fixed every electrical issue with the vehicle. (no start,security light, battery being drained) Most of the bill was for labor to find the problem so if you brought yours in somewhere with this message I am pretty certain this would fix your problem. And them knowing what to look for would save them time and you money.
