Default Vats ????

Can I remove the VATS fuse and still operate my C4?

What year and what fuse did you determine to be VATS? This could be interesting -

The fuse for the VATS on my 88' is clearly labeled VATS. I'm having an issue with mine. I pulled the fuse and car still wouldn't start.

OMG!!! Don't pull that fuse!!!! Your car won't start......
Think about it.
Wouldn't that make it TOO easy for a car thief??

You'll need to take it to someone for a reprogram or find a VATS delete kit off the internet.

So Mike, why didn't you fill in the blanks about what car and year?
Too much to ask or are we suppose to guess?

There's a whole new generation of C4 owners that want, yet unwilling to give or search.
