Joe, the real way to tell if it works is to have a key made without the vats resister and try it. the vats bypass you installed has the resistance needed. This allows you to have keys made that don't cost a fortune.

I worked with some cables under the steering wheel and at some point I disconnected a two wire cable from what I thought was open end but turned out I already had the vat delete and it was actually the resistor needed to start the car because it wouldn’t start anymore. I was lucky I didn’t throw it to the bin because it contained the resistance value. anyway I read the error code and then saw your video which helped me figuring out what I’ve done thanks PS I now saw the orange cable didn’t know what it was

Thanks for the video. I bought a 92 Cadillac DeVille for super cheap that was not starting. I was able to start it only after the battery had completely died, and I jumped it. Drove perfectly until I shut it back off and tried starting it again after the battery had charged. Security light comes on when I try to start but the starter cranks no problem. Could this be a VATS issue? Most people say the car won't even crank but I've seen one person saying it could crank and just prevent the injector pulse. Also have an aftermarket key fab that does not really work. Any advice much appreciated 😁

From what I have seen you get no crank with a bad VATS. But I have read where you will get the car to turn over with no crank, Strange things have happen. I would give it a try. The VATS bypass I used was fairly cheap. I think it was $10. Would the car turn over after shut off?

a potentiometer should work but you need to try many values. ps check for the resistance table, there is a list of ~15, so it won’t take long, you can begin with the most popular. I see it’s an old post maybe someone else needs it

@tinkeringjoeVA

Ebay.. But you can buy resistors from a electronic store or online and put them inline for the VATS. If you buy resistors they need to match the reading of your key same as the bypass would

I have a 94 Coupe and everything works on it amd i have no lights on at all. Question is could my VATS already have been disabled? I tried to program a key fob i got for it a while back and the security light you program it with would not come on. When you delete the VATS does it do this. The light i am referring to is located on the Info center over the radio. Thanks in advance Mike

@Rob McCall after looking at it on ecklers, it seems to be plug and play. Find your key ohms reading and purchase the corresponding bypass. Once you have the correct reading and bypass, find the two wire plug under your dash unplug and plug the bypass in. Besure to disconnect your battery before installing.

why not just solder a 6k resistor on a cable then use heat shrinking tube over it. next crimp a 2 wire connector. the resistor can be a trimmer so you can adjust it to the exact value. You will need a crimper -$10, and soldering pen or station.

What a pain in the ass system! My Brother in Law has a Hummer H3 that has random issues with the Vats system and I had a friend at work who had issues in his car with it also. Just like most other needless crap in modern cars its just something when it goes south its either a band aid type amateur fix or its off to the dealer for expensive repairs and reprogramming. Instead of this PITA system I think they should just give car thieves the chair and televise it during prime time as a theft deterrent. Think modern gas vehicles are bad just wait until everyone is forced to buy an electric car that we wont even be able to work on.
