I found this... kinda vague though..
Disable the inflatable restraint steering wheel module.
Important: The turn signal and multifunction switch assembly wires do not have to be pulled through the column when removing the assembly unless necessary. Let the turn signal and multifunction switch assembly hang freely after removal of the screws.
Remove the turn signal and multifunction switch assembly.
Put the key in the LOCK position.
Disconnect the steering column key lock cylinder set terminal connectors.
Attach a wire to the terminal connectors. This will make installation easier.
Remove the buzzer switch assembly (3).
Remove the lock retaining screw (2).
Remove the retaining clip (4) from the steering column lock cylinder set terminal connector (5).
Remove the steering column lock cylinder set (1).
Gently pull the terminal connectors (5) through the column.
any more help let me know

Is the vats messing up or what exactly is the problem? have you tried checking the resistance on the chip in the key and putting a resistor on the vats wire to bypass it? Or jumpering up the VATS relay?
