If you know the value of the resistor you can cut the wires going to the lock cylinder and solder in a resistor of the correct value.
HHHey the vats went out on my 1992 camaro rs 305 v8,tbi,i tried everything ,nothing worked ,i went to a junk yard and got a used ecm from a 1991 non-vats caprice,,pluged it in ,,no more vats ,,runs great ,,,i dont even have any lights on at all ,,great way to totally get rid of this crappy set up ,the rest of the bypasses dont work if your reader is bad ,or any other part of vats ,,so just get rid of it
just google gm vats bypass kit
how to bypass vats on 95 camaro
probably your security system . Search google for "Bypass GM Vats Security"

This is what saved my car and my money (that I didn't have!). Here is a write-up on how to do it all yourself. It will bypass the VATS system entirely, you will not hear about it anymore and it will not own your car anymore! http://newrockies.ca/vatsbypass
GO to www.vatslikeabigdog.com it tells all about how to bypass the VATS key system with pictures and all.
The 652T GM VATS kit with relay on a 1990 Oldsmobile Toronado is typically located under the dashboard, near the steering column. The kit is installed to bypass the vehicle's factory VATS (Vehicle Anti-Theft System) for starting the engine. You may need to remove some trim panels to access it. Always refer to the vehicle's service manual for specific installation and location details.

Yes,you can buy a VATS bypass module for $30 == ==
To bypass the VATS (Vehicle Anti-Theft System) in a 1992 Camaro, you can cut the two wires leading to the ignition cylinder and connect them directly. This allows the vehicle to start without the VATS key. However, it's important to note that bypassing the system can compromise your vehicle's security and may not be legal in all areas. Always consider consulting a professional or finding a proper fix instead of a bypass.
To bypass the VATS (Vehicle Anti-Theft System) in a 1996 Camaro, you can use a resistor to simulate the key's resistance value. First, locate the VATS module, which is typically found near the ignition switch. Then, identify the resistance value of your key and connect a resistor of the same value to the VATS wires (usually a yellow wire and a black wire) to complete the circuit. This will allow the vehicle to start without the original key, but bypassing VATS can compromise your vehicle's security.
Disabling the VATS system is not the right answer. Bypassing the VATS system on a '89 Pontiac Trams Am requires grounding the crank/start wire on the VATS box (located behind the dash, behind the console) and purchasing a bypass module, which is used in order to allow the fuel injectors to operate. Baker Electronix offers a DFVATS module for this purpose.
