I am currently putting TPI on my car and am stuck once more. I had the original key from the car i took the computer out of and i have a vats interrogator. The interrogator read that it was a #11 resister pellet. So i bought one and cut it. But when i go to try to power up the car, i get nothing. My buddy has a diagnostic scanner and it keeps on coming up vats problem. I tried every value on my interrogator to power up the car but all 15 values failed. I have no idea what it could be now. So i was thinking about bypassing the vats system. My question the tech artical says about sodering the value of the chip to the wire. Is this the only way ????

 

I had a similiar problem on my engine swap. For $150 I got a new chip from Ed Wright that bypasses VATS and also gives some minor performance improvement. This eliminated the problem.

 

Hey man,
Was it you that emailed me about the bypass?
I lost the email due to hotmail and its account size policy...
The bypass costs less that 5 bucks, and works quite nicely... I'll get you the wire colors pretty quick...

Need anything else?

 

No it wasn't me but any help would be much appreciated. Before my car suddenly burst into flames and i have to put an insurance claim in....Thanks

 

Two words here.......... "NEEDS HELP" Someone who has swapped over has to have had this happened...Moderaters , come on, i know you guys know everything, a little help here, mercy. Someone??
