Injectors not pulsing? HELP!

89 350 TPI Been trying to figure this out for a few days and need some help. So I have a crank no start condition. Things that have been checked. I've verified there is fuel pressure Power to injectors. Spark is good to plugs. Fires on starting fluid. Brand new distibutor and icm. Tried ecm swap. Recently did intake gaskets on it. Drove fine for about week. This issue happened out of nowhere. Car had no symptoms before I shut it off a couple days ago. I did notice my security light does NOT illuminate when I turn on key anymore. But i understand a VATS issue will cause a no crank. Any ideas would be great, im at a loss.

Tuned, Thanks! It was indeed the vats system. From what i read on the forum i thought vats always shut down the starter. Thanks again for the quick response.

No problem, who knows what was going on with the starter enable relay or it maybe bypassed. Glad you got it going again
