You can shunt the key reader with an equivalent resistance, as was mentioned earlier. (Now, anyone who challenges the term "shunt" is a cocksucker.. You know what I am saying..) There are two issues in this system.. If the FGM system doesnt work, then the starter can be approached directly, AND the injectors can be fired independently of the freaking security system.. Then it should start, and having started should run. There is a special place in Hell, next to the furnace, for GM engineers. |

Where are you? Do you want to fix this POS for me? If I knew any experts here who would take this car and return me a ride, I would be most happy. |

Right here. 20 or so miles north of Milwaukee, about two miles east of the big pond. > Do you want to fix this POS for me > If I knew any experts here who would take this car and return me a ride, > I would be most happy. You said that you installed a bypass resistor. Where and how exactly did you install it? Does it set codes when it no starts? |

I think one work around would be to have a new custom PROM burned that ignores the VATS function. |

This is all rather trivial and semantic-y, but it does appear that you are ignoring the definition(s) of waveform. Whatever. It certainly doesn't matter in the end; like someone else typed, we all understand the crux of the biscuit. Toyota MDT in MO |

When seeing that I posted agreed upon definitions for [electrical] waveform, how would one come to the conclusion that I'm a disbeliever in "electrical waveforms"? > The best thing to do with the fool is put him into a killfile. That's clearly the best policy, just like you have proven to do in the past. Toyota MDT in MO |

Wires going to the contacts in the ignition switch were removed and the equivalent key resistance (dont remember just which resistor value just now) was soldered into place. Taped and put back out of the way. > Does it set codes when it no starts? As best I remember, no. It has set phantom codes on occasions but they apparently have no bearing on anything. As I remember it, they come from the leveling system. The Check Engine light is on, due to the cam magnet having taken a dive. That never causes any real problems either. I have a block prepped, and all the new parts to put in a fresh engine, but have not wanted to get involved with this due to the electrical problems. This series of car is KNOWN for electrical problems. |

Taped and put back out of the way. I think it would be worthwhile to move the resistor to as close to the VATS module as possible. > > > Does it set codes when it no starts? > > As best I remember, no.

It's entirely possible the problem lies elsewhere like the starter inhibit relay. > The Check Engine light is on, due to the cam magnet having taken a dive. > That never causes any real problems either.

I don't blame you. > This series of car is KNOWN for electrical problems. I know. The manager at the local NAPA had one. Thank god he finally totaled it. The electrical systems are akin to what's found on aftermarket customized vans. |
