Bypassing VATS/Passkey on 1994 Oldsmobile

Описание: My experience working around the failing anti-theft system on our 1994 Oldsmobile 88 LSS.
Should be more or less the same for similar GM cars from the 90's. 3 years ago I did a video of doing this on a 1991 Buick but wanted to go into more detail this time.
I like the idea of removing as much as possible of the VATS/PassKey and spoofing the signal to the car's computer with a bypass module rather than the method of wiring in a resistor to mimic the one in the key. Sooner or later the factory module will probably go bad so I vote for replacing it with something simpler.
Video begins in the middle of getting to the starter enable relay, but about half-way through I recap the entire process.
The bypass module I used is from a company that closed up shop in 2018, but similar items are available if you search on-line, prices ranging from about $20 to $240. $240 is a company called Newrockies and it sounds like theirs adds features and instructions where you don't have to dig out the starter enable relay and bypass it – could have saved some time on this car (if that is in fact the case). The $20 ones appear to strictly provide the 50 Hz (and/or maybe the 30Hz as well) that the car's computer is looking for so the fuel system will be enabled, and if your starter is affected by the anti-theft system you would still need to do something about that. The others appear to wire in somewhat differently than my module did, but the process is similar.
Not shown in the video is what I finally used to bypass the relay. I gutted the relay and soldered a jumper wire connecting the yellow wires when it was plugged into the connector in the car. I also soldered a pigtail for the “on” signal to connect to the bypass module. So the only wire that was cut was the blue wire going to the factory VATS connector.
I did find that once the car is started the power to the bypass module can be taken away and the car keeps running, at least on this '94 Olds. I also thought of the possibility of adding a hidden switch to retain a bit of security, but didn't do it on our car.
These are great old cars and worth keeping on the road. No telling how many have been junked just because the anti-theft system thought the owner was trying to steal their own car!
There are probably other ways of getting around the VATS/PassKey system, but this worked for me on 2 cars.
I'm no expert, so suggestions to make the process easier or anything to add to the knowledge base are welcome.
Thanks for watching!
