VATS System Problem? Car Wont Start

I have a 99 TA M6 and the car will not start. I push the cluth in turn the key and nothing..no clicking or anything. The batterys not dead..all the gauges light up and work normally, but when i turn the key to the start position nothing happens. I did notice my security light is blinking and dosent stop. Ive tried my 2nd set of keys and the same thing happens. Is there anyway i can get the car started to atleast get it up to a dealership?

Pull out the VATS relay and splice the wires back together. I had the same problem with my car over a year ago. I don't know about the 99s, but you might also want to check to see if you need it programmed out of the PCM. Fairly easy, assume the relay is in an easy to reach place on the 99s.
