Did you ever figure this out?

I am having a similar problem that came on suddenly, while troubleshooting a poor idle issue... replaced some parts and BAM! now it wont turn over...

Hey shibber I ended up having a bad alternator bad starter and bad wires replaced them all and it fires up perfect
What parts did you replace? Is everything connected correctly?

Havent had a chance to dig into it yet, probably just the solenoid as I went out today and it turned just fine... still not starting but its turning again.

Still not sparking, I think when I was replacing my ICM I leaned on something and pulled a wire or something like that. It ran, albeit very poorly before the ICM change... Ive been battling this thing since March.
If I cant get it sorted out this weekend, the local Chevy dealer will charge $99 to diagnose it and he seems more than confident that they can figure it out. We'll see.
