VATS removal or bypass???
My security light is on and won't go off.
I've tried 3 different ignition keys and none of them will work. Is there any way to just totally avoid the VATS system since it seems the module is bad and not the key? I'm assuming the bypasses that are on the market won't fix the problem if it's the module that's shot. I'm not looking to "trick" the system just go around it. Any help and info would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

well i had to go with the resistor fix . i found the relay that makes the car crank and bypassed it, but the fuel pump and the ignition are also turned on in the ecm by this system.aparently a prom can fix this or useing a older ecm without the vats system.
