not sure what wires to splice and solder...

saw a video on you tube where they do it with resistors, but still stumpped

thanks for any help

Pull the bolster off under the steering wheel. There is gonna be a 2 wire connector that is white wires I beleive with a orange sleeve around both of them. After u know what resistors u need then u unplug them wires and put the resistors to the wires that go toward the firewall. Not the column side

Shbox.com had a nice clear diragram on it..

ok found the orange sleeve with 2 white wires now to look for an ohm reader...

I did this last night and the security light is now gone. Wired in 2 resistors in series to get the correct resistance and no more light! Thank you LS1tech community!

Make sure you put the resistance on the correct side of the wires! The physical configuration works if you hold the paper upside down.

I had to do this with C5Z05, the two contacts inside the ignition cylinder that read the pellet in the key broke. Worked like a champ!!

Anybody ever had their car start with the connector unplugged? I got a resistor for my 94, put it in and the security light was still on. Took it off, left it unplugged and it still started. Security light stays on about 90% of the time.

yup works good i just started mine used 2 resistors a 1.5k and 330 thanks guys

We use these in our road race cars.

We strip the columns and remove the key start altogether.
Start using a momentary switch on the dash.

hey guys it didn't start it cranked and i thought it would start. but after i put gas in it all it would do is crank... the fuel rail didn't have fuel, i left the key forward hoping it would build fuel pressure... also i had last started about 8 months ago...

any advice or help would be awesome

Did you measure resistance properly with digital multimeter (Set your meter to the 20k ohm setting)? How did you read the resistance of the pellet in the key( one lead on each side of the pellet)? Verify your 1.5ohm reading, its a tad outside of ohm values GM used, although I believe there is some room for slight variance. What type of resistor did you buy? I had to try several, a 7.5ohm (1/2 watt resistor) ended up being the ticket for me.
