Default 2002 Z06 VATS Problem

Have had this happen to me several times at least 1 time everytime I drive it which is not to often. Dont want to disable the VATS due to my last vette being stolen which in fact I didnt know that the VATS was disabled.

Ive read several topics on this however the only alternatives are maybe a relearn? Ive already purchased a replacement key and still have the problem. Any clues on the price for a replacement ignition switch and what is involved when purchasing these? Anyone have a relearn procedure for the 02 Z06? PLease let me know.............

Might try this before buying a new ignition switch.

Security light on the dash flashing?

You getting any trouble codes? If so, post 'em up.

No codes and the light flashes in the on position, turn the key all goes out after several attempts the car will start.

Ok, so here it is as luck would have it ,have connection at the local chevy dealership and at free of charge the total ignition system is getting replaced and will be ready tomorrow along with from my other topic> http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c5-t...tor-codes.html of the actuators, all free of charge. Not to mention a whole new AC System will be installed which includes blend doors, compressor, tank and all lines with no out of pocket expenses, will post pics later.
