Re: resistors

You'll have to find the right resistor for YOUR car - there are 15 possible values - it's hard to do without the original key. You'll have to test each one, until you find the correct one. https://www.thirdgen.org/vats

Unbelievable how many folks don't make copies of their keys!

Re: resistors

Your key would have been one of these values. One of the values in this table should work for you https://www.thirdgen.org/vats_passkey_system

Re: resistors

You've been helped. You've been given the instructions on how to bypass, you've been given the list of possible resistor values, and you've been told that without the key, you'll have to test each one until you find the right one. All that's left is for YOU to go to radio shack, buy the resistors, and test each one until you get the right one that enables the car to start. There's no more help we can provide.
