From my experience, it is the wire from the ignition switch that is unable to "read" the resistor in your ignition key. I had this problem and decided to wire in the correct resistors to the wires in the steering column. While this eliminates eliminates this anti-theft device, the alternatives of taking apart the steering column was less desirable. You'll need an ohmmeter to get this to work.

Measure the resistance in your key pellet then build a resistor that measures as close to the same as possible. There's lots of info on here about it. Search for vats bypass.
