The Pass-Key, Pass-Key II, or VATS, as it's called in earlier GM vehicles, uses a resistor mounted in the key blank to confirm that the correct ignition key is being used to start the engine. Many people call the resistor pellet a "chip" due to the common misconception that it is some sophisticated digital circuit to identify the key to the car. Not quite. It is not a "chip" of silicon as is customarily used for integrated circuits, but merely a block of carbon appropriately sized to have a desired electrical resistance.

What would prevent a 1995 Cadillac SLS with a new battery and all systems OK from starting?
IF MEMORY SERVS ME RIGHT-THE PASS KEY SYSTEM WILL DISABLE THE STARTER FROM OPERATING IF IT DOES NOT READ THE PASS CODE FROM KEY-NOT SURE IF THATS WHAT YOU MENT BY NOT STARTING -BUT IF YOU HAVE NO STARTER ENGAGEMENT AND STARTER CKS GOOD-CK YOUR PASS KEY SYSTEM-SHOULD BE A PASS KEY RELAY IN THIS SYSTEM TOO CK THAT ALSO If there is a passkey problem the security light will flash. Many times one of the grounds from the battery will be loose or if the terminal is stripped out on the battery. Check the motor and chasis ground for tightness, not just the battery terminal.
