I know that VATS has been discussed before. I searched the forum, but couldn't find the same problem that I'm having.
86 coupe, automatic.
Intermittently, car won't crank. When I turn the key over, and the car goes into the no-crank mode, the "Security" light comes on. This leads me to believe it's a VATS issue. 20 minutes or so later, car starts fine.
Here's what's already been done to try to correct the problem:
-Installed "VATS bypass" to bypass key 'chip' code
-bypassed started inhibitor relay in dash
-installed a chip from pcmforless, that included reprogramming of the VATS fuel enable signal.
OK, I'm assuming that it's VATS related because of the "Security" light coming on.
I *thought* I covered everything as far as bypassing everything VATS related. Am I still missing other components related to VATS?
I see that there are two modules available that are related to VATS - the "VATS Module" and the "VATS Theft Deterrent Circuit Interrupt Module". Since I already bypassed the key, starter inhibitor relay, and VATS fuel signal... do these two modules still have any function?
TIA,
Ed
