What else can I help you with?
How do you find out what resistance your chip is for the pass key system on a 89 camaro rs without the key?
Using a VATS interrogator. A locksmith is a expert in this field.
Do you have to reset vats on 1992 camaro after changing ignition?
No. You have to get a key cut with the correct value resistor in it. The new lock cylinder comes with a key with no chip.
How do you remove or bypass the security system for a 1989 Chevy Camaro SS?
Cant Its in the computer that runs the engine The vats system can be bypassed by matching the resistance in the key chip.
Does a 1991 RS Camaro have chips in their emissions keys?
Yes, they do. They use the pass key chip system.
Will a 1991 Camaro steering column fit a 1989 Camaro?
Unforuently, No. It would be your best bet to go ahead and get the same year column that matches your vehicle for a guranteed fit. 1990 to 1992 Camaro steering wheels are equiped with a Air Bag and "Vats Box" for safety and security. These columns require keys that have a chip embedded on them. The chip contains a pin key code that corresponds with the cars Vats, thus stopping the car from being hot-wired.
How do you change from coded key to regular key in 1991 camaro ignition has been knocked out?
I'd call a lcoksmith and have them install a new VATS ignition. It's possible to change to a standard key but I believe you'd still have to use a VATS ignition because the VATS keys are longer than a standard GM key which makes the ignition a little longer by a 1/4". Then you'd have to bypass the VATS. To bypass the VATS, find the two wires that go to the ignition. Clip the wires. Install the correct resistor between the two wires. Now the system will see the correct value no matter what key is inserted. To determine the resistor value, check the ohms of the chip by placing your probes on either side of the chip in the key. If you don't have an original key then I would just have a locksmith fix the vehicle.
How do you bypass pass key controller module on a 92 Camaro rs?
Location of pass key controller module on 92 Camaro
How do you disconnect the security system but make it run for a 92 camaro rs?
i dont fully understand your question but ill give it a go. to disable the vats(the system that requires your key to have that thing in it) i believe your going to need a new prom chip.
What is a pass key security system?
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.
Does 1995 camaro have a chip in igniton key?
yes, need it to start the car.
What could be the problem with a 1998 Oldsmobile Aurora when it does not start up and Security light continues to flash?
The Aurora has a VATS ignition and either the contacts in the ignition lock are bad, the wires from the lock to the computer are broken or the VATS chip in your key is dirty or the contacts in the ignition lock is dirty and not making connection with the chip in the key.
What causes the security light to light up and how do you take it off on a 1991 Camaro?
The VATS (Vehicle Anti-Theft System) causes the Security light to go on. If the security light is on (besides for a brief moment when starting the car/turning the key), and you cannot start your car, it has to do with the resistor chip in your key. That's the black rectangular piece of plastic with a metal strip in the middle of it. Camaro ignitions need to match an electrical value to the value of the chip in your key to start the car. I believe there are 15 values ranging in ohms. When the ignition and the chip register the same value, you can start the car. If they don't, then you cannot. When you cannot start the car and the security light is on, that means that the ignition and the chip in the key either do not match or one is not registering. I had this problem in my camaro and had to wire a resistor into the VATS wire to bypass the system....basically, it thinks whatever key I use always has the correct value. Resistors are very cheap and you can do this yourself, I had a guy come out and do it just to make sure everything was right.
