Why Is The Security Light On??

The security light on my 93 z28 stays on even while its running:confused: .what would cause this,and how would i fix it?Thanks in advance for any help.

Its going to be something with the VATS system.

The resistor on your key is probably wore down and you'll probably need to get a new key.

your local GM dealer should be able to supply you with one. I believe they are kinda pricey though

it's not pricey at all to get a new key

find out what code u have .. there is a site that lists what ohm goes to what code..

go here order your key $14

bring it to a key cutting place and get it cut... no $150 for a new key

Mine does this if you don't push the key in all the way.

i can ride around all day with my security light on i figure its my key car still turns on and such

I had a Monte Carlo that I drove for over two years with this light on. Never had any problems.

to be safe that it will keep starting, unplug the connector for VATS under the steering column, as long is that is open(since you are in failsafe) it will keep starting

Cool thanks for all the help,im just glad its nonthing major ill have to worry about :D Thanks everyone,

you can use the plug trick as well, start the car, then unplug the connector, then it will keep starting


as long as the resistance is lost after the car is running, it will keep starting
