You may wanna try this: > "Set the ignition key switch to
accessory--the electronics are ON in the
car; then remove the negative terminal from the car battery for a few
minutes. Then, turn the key to OFF and hook up the battery." <

GM doesn't have anything on that car that would prevent it from starting
just because you swapped the battery.

Does it have an aftermarket alarm/anti-theft system?

Do you get a flashing "security" light when you attempt to start it?

Too late to help this person, but there is a way to prevent this from
happening. Same with radio codes. Battery shops plug a 12 volt source into
the lighter socket while swapping out the battery. Prevents codes from being
lost.
