Default Vat key code

Tried to test my key to get the voltage (ohms) in order to get my VAT code so I could order a new key for my 2001 z06 but the voltage was zero. What does this mean?

OHMS and VOLTS are two totally different measurements. Read the OHMS of the resister chip on the key with an OHM Meter. All you need is that resistance reading to figure out what key blank you should order.
