Why? If it cranks.

Let'* get on the same page with terminology:

Cranks: The starter is turning the engine
Starts: The engine starts to run without assistance from the starter

Does the engine start? . . . or does it only crank?

I agree with carfixer007:

If it cranks, then likely you don't need to replace the starter.

What was done to bypass the security system? Are we talking about the GM built-in security system or some kind of aftermarket security system?
