Get a pack of 271-1330 these are 4.7K resistors. Put 2 of them is series and put that across your wires. This will give you 9.4K of resistance, which is close enough.

On the older setups using the VATS module, before they incorporated it the BCM, I've never had an issue, as long as it was within 10%
Buy 2 packs of the resistors(they're cheap enough) and measure all of them and pick the 2 that add up closest to the correct value.

How did you hook it up? IMHO, taking the under the glove box panel off and going to the bcm connector, White with black stripe wire pin 7 with your resistors straight to ground is the most straight fwd method.
That is, for an Fbody.
Is this F or Y?

ok, heres what i just did. i took and unplugged the connector, put the key in and checked the wires from the key cylinder with the multimeter. i believe i should have gotten the same reading as the key, but i got nothing. does this confirm a broken wire in the column area?
