No Start.....Security Light
Just making sure I've got my ducks in a row. I've got a no start condition I need to fix ASAP as this just became my only mode of trans.
Key the ignition on, I get all my dash lights and accessories, with a solid security light. Key the car on and I get no cranking.
Vats?????

Re: No Start.....Security Light
This happened to me the other day in my work parking lot. I fiddled with the remote lock/unlock and key on/off a bunch of times and eventually the problem went away
Not sure what caused it, and I'd like to know what fixes it for you. I would definitely try disconnecting the battery 1st. If nogo, VATS would be my next guess.
I had a '92 Camaro which had a VATS problem. I ended up measuring the resistance of the pill in the key and buying a resistor of the same value. Then I unplugged the VATS connector under the dash and jumped the wires with the resistor. Never had another VATS problem with that car again.
