VATs Bypass - South Florida Posted By: nwftbl25 On: 01-03-2008 @ 11:33:30 Reply | Edit Anyone in South Florida (Miami Beach) that can overide or bypass the VATs? If so, I will gladly pay for you to do it. Please let me know ASAP -- 92' Camaro 305 5.0L TBI - 25th Anniversary Edition Posted By: All2kool On: 12-19-2005 @ 13:37:58 Reply | Top | Edit Any locksmith can provide a VATS bypass. They usually charge less than $50 to do it. It's just a matter of inserting the correct OHM Resistor in the ignition loop. Fairly simple process really. If your local locksmith charges more than $50 - he's ripping you off. Mine did it for $35 - took 15 minutes. You will need the original key of course as they need it to measure the OHM Resistance for your car. There are 15 different possible keys. -- 1991 IROC, 350 TPI, 700R4, 45k Miles 1990 Trans Am, 350 TPI, 700R4, 32k Miles 1969 Z28, 400 Dual Quads, Muncie 4-Speed, 55k Miles 1965 Astin Martin DB5, 62k Miles Posted By: nwftbl25 On: 12-19-2005 @ 13:43:05 Reply | Top | Edit Appreciate the tip, any particluar type of locksmith or will any do?

I pulled it because I got tired of waiting for the car to start and that didn't work. Secondly, if the key reads and I drive the car, when I stop if I leave the key in the ignition does that mean it will read next time?? Thanks! -- 92' Camaro 305 5.0L TBI - 25th Anniversary Edition Posted By: All2kool On: 12-20-2005 @ 15:23:24 Reply | Top | Edit The car will only start when the correct key is in the ignition. Leaving the key in the ignition will accomplish nothing unless you leave the car running. Look at your key - if the contacts on the key are worn, have a new one made. If the car has a lot of miles and the pins in the steering column are worn, a new key won't help much. -- 1991 IROC 1LE, 350 TPI, 700R4, 45k Miles 1990 Trans Am WS6, 350 TPI, 700R4, 32k Miles 1969 Z28, 400 Dual Quads, Muncie 4-Speed, 55k Miles 1965 Astin Martin DB5, 62k Miles Posted By: nwftbl25 On: 12-20-2005 @ 15:57:27 Reply | Top | Edit Thank you. -- 92' Camaro 305 5.0L TBI - 25th Anniversary Edition Posted By: b80vette On: 12-20-2005 @ 17:22:33 Reply | Top | Edit take a look at this site thay have a right up on how to bypass the vats shbox.com Posted By: 92blue On: 01-02-2006 @ 16:14:21 Reply | Top | Edit If you still need to have VATS disabled, let us know, we are located in S.

Using an ohm meter, measure and record the resistance of the chip in your ignition key. Go to Radioshack and purchase resistor(s) to achieve this resistance. If more than one resistor is needed to get the resistance value needed - solder them together in series. The resistors cost $1.00 for a package of five. Then, remove the plastic piece below the steering wheel (there are like 4 screws). Amongst all of the electrical connections on the steering column, there is a seperate two wire connector - typically yellow 18 gauge wires. Unplug the connector and shove the resistor into the car side of the connector - not the steeringwheel side. Then try and start. If you have the resistance correct - there is a range that the computer will accept for each of the 15 set values. Once you have confirmed that this works - make a more permanent repair.
