Not exactly sure where you should go from here. Wait for some others with more experience to chime in.

Trust these guys!
I bypassed my VATS system years ago, after searching the interenet, and THEN I found this site. These guys will help and they do know their stuff.
As for where the security light is, do you have the digital or analog dash. Its on the lower right hand side of the intrument cluster in the information center on my wifes Olds 98

What do you mean digital or analog?
I think it'* analog, it has mph and kph as well in the outer ring.
Anyway my problem should be either the ignition switch or the VATS modul, right ?

Thanks for the reply, i just went to the car with a flashlight and found it !
This dash in the picture is like the one in my 93 Se.
I have 2 important questions:
How do I get to the thin orange wire of the VATS under the wheel?
Is there an DIY or something with pictures?
How can i recognize the VATS modul?
Thanks alot guys,
Sahar.

So, does the light come on when you first turn the key on?
