I am posting a few loose ends, my car is not starting though it has power to the battery and starter. No turnover clicking nothing and i beginning to beleive its this bumfuc*ed wiring. Any suggestions will help.

The first pic is an orange wire with two white ones in it from the column.
The 2nd is a wire cluster that has a red and white leading into the shifter console and connects with like 4 wires out of it.
And the third is a aftermarketsecurity that i need to tear out.

These are inside the shifter where the red and white wire connects. also shows a few grounds with purple wires?

In the 2nd pic the purple and white, and the different red and white lead to this connector under the radio. (picture is upside down, sorry)

Pic 1 is the resistor wiring for your IGN cyl for VATS

The rest are for the alarm which usually disables the starting system

Use this to fix that mess

Here is VATS in case they messed with it too

First, find out if the system only disables the starter
To do this, turn the key to run and use a screwdriver to bridge the starter

If the car starts and runs then the system is only a starter kill

These systems sometimes also disable the fuel pump. You can tell if the fuel pump primes or not

hey thanks. ya i figured that the orange wires were the vats and i gutted the aftermarket alarm yesterday. Most of it was soldered into existing wires so i removed most of that but still a no go. Most likely bc i'm still looking where to plug in the vats lol. But im going to look at the sites and mess with it today and ill prolly have a few questions. So again, Thank you.

Try this to confirm vats. Remove the drivers kick panel. you will find the starter enable relay there. bypass this by bridgeing the two large wires and see if the car cranks. Most alarms come with a resistor to use to bypass vats for. also look for a relay out of place under the dash as this id often used with the resistor to bypass the vats on remote start systems(maybe alarms too???) hope this helps. Lhated vats so I removed the system. you remove the box which is mounted to the firewall behind the dash and turn it off in the ecm with a custom chip, and remove the starter enable relay. I also wired in a kill switch for the starter

the vats has to be pluged in for your car to start, ..... the computer reads a ohms resistance from your key and if the reading isnt there , it will shut of your starter and fuel pump

My 91 wont sart after sitting in storage all winter. I took off the panel under the steering column and I have a brown wire just hanging that should go into the fuse box. Its the same wire you have shown in the pic. Where does it plug into?

If it drove in there, a wire wouldnt mysteriously disconnect from storage

Start with the basics before you go wire tracing
