Car Alarms: Factory alarm on 1998 Camaro, gm passlock, vats passkey


Question
QUESTION: I have a 1998 camaro that the vats seems to be working properly but when you turn the key nothing happens. The alarm was going off when ever it felt like it. Any suggestions?

ANSWER: I need to determine whether it's a factory alarm
issue or, if it's an aftermarket system you are
dealing with.

Is it: Headlights flashing, car horn honking
and a worded SECURITY" light in the dash flashing?
(doubtfull since none of the notes show this
car as having a factory alarm system)=FACTORY

Or,

is it: flashing parking lights,
an LED in the dash area, and a siren
going off?= AFTER MARKET

Let me know more on this to better
advise you on a course of action
to take.

QUESTION: It shows a security flashing on instrument panel.

Answer
Your Vehicle Has The VATS-PASSKEY
fuel rail Immobilizer system in the ignition.

It matches the resistance level in the key switch
and allows for the fuel rail to engage with any key
you choose to use. See details on the site.

I wish there was an easy way to magically get it to
work without it, but this is what we have available
short of paying GM a bunch of cash to reset
a system that will likely need it again, and again.
That's if you can locate a GM service dept.
in the next couple of years! :>(

I'd bypass it and go from there with an after market
alarm to pick up the slack. Then no GM passlock issues to
worry about down the line.

Any good technician can install this item in less then an 2 hours.

If your vehicle's battery needs to be removed for
