my 90 camaro vin e hasnt run in about a year because the lock cylinder was broken and i let it sit but this thing is all mickey mouse now. it was broken into so who knows if the alarm works, it doesnt respond to the clicker, but it responds to the key in the new lock cylinder...i think im just going to rip the alarm out, even tho it cost me. i just want this thing to start. i also bypassed vats and had no trouble with that so long as it was set right...and ive checked it over and over. well when i turn the key to on the gauges all respond, but if i try to crank it the 10A gauges fuse blows and the car also happens to not start. im getting power to the yellow wire coming out of the ignition switch. does anyone think i can run the yellow wire to the purple wire to start the car, or will the injectors not fire....when i turn the key i can hear the fuel pump prime... anyone have a problem blowing the 10A gauges fuse when they turn the key?

most likely, if that 10A fuse controls your vats, your problem is bypassing the vats. the vats would be a load or resister. when you bypass it, your removing that resistance, which in turns causes your current (amperage) to rise. basically your overloading the circuit and blowning the fuse. never bypass a load, or you will start blowing fuses. other than that, i can't help you with your problems.

Most likely the circuit that the 10A fuse is protecting has a direct short to ground.

Bypassing the VATS doesn't delete any resistance, the VATS resistors are hard wired together permanently.

current takes the path of least resistance, so how could by-passing it not remove resistance?

Removing the resistance in this case doesn't means taking out the resistor pellet from the key, or ignition switch, only "bypassing" it with another of equal resistance.

VATS bypass can be accomplished by more than one method, bypassing the key, or ignition swtch resistance is the easiest.
