typicaly its the lock cylinder not properly reading the resister on the key. measure the resistance on the key and unplug the 2 wire yellow wire connector at the bottom onf the steering colum and see if u read the same resistance there. if not then the ignition switch is bad and needs to be replace. if you can read it then the vats module may be bad.

wow excellent! Thank you!
I had some of those flowcharts and schematics from alldatapro, but I couldn't find an clean looking "how to" of replacing the lock! That's good stuff! Thanks again. I am going to try and clean some of that up for an easier to view document for everyone
Thanks again!
One weekend soon, I am going to attempt the lock removal on my own so I can take plenty of pics of all steps as well for for everyone to see better. Those docs will really help out in that project
