Before you try this, run a resistor of the same value to the connecter under the steering column. I'd hate to see you do all that work and have the same problem.

Could be:
Key to cylinder pin connection
wire from ignition cylinder to connector under dash
BCM

If you decide on temporarily turning off your VATS, I have a 2002 Fbody HPTuners license and can do it for you.

my buddy had a 2000 ss that was stolen due to the vats being disabled. I appreciate the offer but I fixed the ignition cylinder to keep my vats.
