Description

This VATS bypass module is intended for use when installing a GM engine equipped with VATS (Vehicle Anti-Theft System) into a vehicle missing the BCM (Body Control Module), when resistor type bypasses just wont work, or for use with remote starting applications involving stock vehicles equipped with VATS. Our VATS bypass will also work to bypass failing VATS systems.

This bypass module generates the ‘key OK’ signal normally sent from the BCM, sometimes called the VATS decoder, to the PCM/ECM when the proper key is detected. Without this signal, the fuel injectors will shut down within the first 3 seconds. Normally it costs between $150 and $300 to have this feature deleted from the PCM. By using our module you will accomplish the same function for less and you won’t have to ship your PCM/ECM to have it reprogrammed.

Our module will work with:

  • GM ‘F’ body type vehicles from 1989 and up
  • 93 and up LT1 with some exceptions after 95
  • 98 and up LS1 with some exceptions
  • All VATS equipped GM (Buick, Chevy, Oldsmobile and Pontiac) vehicles from 89 to 02 that originally had the black resistor pellet in the metal part of the ignition key
  • All VATS equipped GM vehicles from 89 to 95, some engines made from 89 to 93
  • All VATS equipped GM vehicles from 89 to 02 that has a wire to the PCM labeled VATS, Fuel enable or Circuit 229
  • If the original car key has resistor chip/pellet in it then our module will work for you.

Our module is a simple four-wire interface (power, ground, standard signal and 30Hz signal) and if installed with a detachable connector, it can be removed to enable the factory anti-theft system to protect your car overnight or at the car show. You can’t do that if you programmed that feature out of your PCM/ECM.

This module comes equipped with a status LED that indicates that it is functioning. LED will flash once every eight seconds when power is applied.

To connect module you will need your car specific wiring diagram to find ‘fuel enable’ wire. Due to a variety of cars and low item cost, we do not provide car specific wiring diagram. We rely on the user to do basic research. Online forums full of instructions for bypass connections.

This bypass does not remove the need for starter bypass which is easily done with relay rewiring. You can find this information on the web and car forums. We do not provide instructions for starter bypass

Dual Frequency VATS Bypass generates both Standard VATS Signal as well as the 30Hz Signal all in one module. So there is no need to guess which unit to buy.

  • Reverse voltage protection in the event of incorrect power connections
  • Short circuit protection on all outputs to 12V or ground
  • Dual frequency: Standard VATS and 30Hz VATS
  • Dual duty cycle: Standard and Painless
  • Lightweight (.5oz)
  • Small package (0.8in by 0.5in by 0.12in)
