error code 53
My TBI car won't start, and its flashing error code 53. The spark is good, fuel system is good, but it seems like the injectors aren't getting any power. Any ideas?

Re: error code 53
According to this:

Code 53 is your VATS system. Usually the resistor in the key stops making good contact with the sensors in the key lock cylinder. A new key could fix it.
