I have a Pontiac Grand Am 04 and used your video today to finally fix this problem. Ive been late to work a few times because I didn't know what was going on initially. I followed yr video step by step. Coming from a single woman, thanks so much for this helpful video.
Great video! This has been a problem for the life of my 2000 Alero. The dealer replaced the ignition switch at least 6 times in it's life. It was sold to me before I knew it was a problem. I should have known when the previous owned handed me 5 set's of keys. I'm like, 5 sets of keys? That's strange... Then I had the ignition replace again for $600. You would think the manufacture would have a fix like this. A 20 year old car does not need theft protection, I say "Please steal it" LOL
Good video, I would recommend getting a GoPro (even a cheap one) and mounting on your head/hat that way you have a nice clean video quality to pair with your excellent advice.
I have 96 Pontiac Grand Am with this same problem Passkey Module VATS. My ignition is on right side on the tilted steering column. Can you tell me if the wires are in the same place for access and if the color of the wires are the same (yellow, black, white) colors?
That's what I was thinking too! I was very surprised to see that! Mine started as a blinking light that waiting 10 minutes would resolve, now it's solid and I'm not sure what to do

Thank you for your help. You are very well informed. Its nice to see people using their brain and not just throwing parts at a problem.

I put in a resistor as u stated but it still won't start and I even did the relearn steps why won't it start ?
Just curious did you ever fix the issue?
I'm currently going thru the same thing as well as the shifter won't shift outta park
Can anyone tell me what wattage is needed for the 1500 Ohms resistor?
So I bought some resistors would 68 k ohm work it's only 1% tolerance
How did the resistor work out ? Any more security problems?
I did all this and my car still wont start do you any thoughts on it
Buen video
Gracias por mirar el video.
algen que lo tradusca porfabor me interesa mucho eso amigo
I put a 2.2 resistor and still duin the same thing
De cuánto debe ser la resistencia no entendí bien eso
1500 ohmios es lo que usé. Gracias por mirar el video.
If you have to wait 10 minutes still you didn't bypass the security. You didnt bypass the passlock or it would have started.
