In the trunk: Look in the trunk, on the bottom of the partial shelf very close to the weatherstripping are three plastic thumb-nuts holding the flimsy seat-back cover on. Unscrew the nuts and remove the cover (cover is contoured to the trunk side of the back-seat and is large but light, covering the seat and the bottom of the shelf). Underneath on the seat back are a ton of modules and relays. The vats/passkey module is a small black box located just right and down from the very center. About 1x3x5" It will have a connector coming out of the bottom.
The connector is a two-row eight pin connector. Unplug it. Looking closely, you will see the rows labeled A and B and columns 1-8. B7 and B8 are what you are looking for. They will be purple w white stripe and white w black stripe, cut em both. Measure the resistance of your key pellet. Get $2 of resistors from Radioshack that add up to the pellet resistor. Solder them in line with one another. Splice that between the two wires ON THE CONNECTOR SIDE. Use butt connectors or just get busy with the soldering. I know that its more than you asked but that's it. It took me about three hours of running to radioshack and splicing and making coffee, etc, etc. I did it on a 94 deville earlier today, a 97 is the same deal. Good luck.
