1992 camaro rs wont start not even a click

i have a 92 rs it won't start unless i get a screwdriver too the starter, but when i turn the key nothing a slight click by the ds firewall i think those relays are for the fans? but i checked voltage to starter and its good, i changed ignition switch and still nothin. i have been told ignition control module but i don't know where its at and i keep throwing money at sensors and relays and still same results. any help???????

Welcome aboard thirdgen.org.

Check your VATS. There's a tech article on the system linked from the thirdgen.org homepage.

Well, VATS acting up would keep power from getting to the purple wire.

I'm not sure I'd trust the light to tell me the VATS is okay.
