#1768 of 2228 1992 Bonneville...stalls after warming up by samiam6 Jan 30, 2006 (6:46 am)
I have a '92 bonneville with 230000 mi. on it that stalls after it warms up. Once it cools down it will start again and run another 30 min. or so. No codes have been recorded and when I turn the key to the on position after it stalled I don't hear the fuel pump. I suspect either the crank sensor or the ignition module but was told the crank sensor usually will not work again after it goes out. Can anyone advise me if I'm on the right track or what checks I can make to narrow this down. Any help I can get would be greatly appreciated. Thanks much, Mike

#1772 of 2228 Steering vibration by ardbeg Feb 04, 2006 (10:39 am)
I am experiencing a vibration (2000 Bonneville SSEi) in the steering wheel at anything over 50 mph.... particularly when the wheel is turned slightly as when changing lanes. It is not a wheel balancing problem as the dealer has put 4 new wheels from another vehicle on it and nothing changes. I've been told by the dealer that the steering components are all "tight". I still believe the problem is somewhere in the steering mechanism.... Can anyone provide any suggestions? Replies to this message: jredfield (Apr 02, 2006 6:58 am)
#1773 of 2228 still having problems....re:1992 bonneville (msg.# 1768) by samiam6 Feb 05, 2006 (1:23 pm)
In reference to my message #1768 I changed the ignition module, started the car,it ran for 5 secs. or so then died again only this time it set a code. The code was 58...fuel pump disable due to the VATS (vehicle anti-theft system). Does anyone have any suggestions on trouble shooting this system or even bypassing it? I guess if I can get by the VATS I'll put the old ignition module back on...maybe it was never the problem. Thanks for any help I can get in regards to these problems.

Replying to: samiam6 (Feb 05, 2006 1:23 pm) I thought the VATS system only kept the car from starting when an incorrect resistance was read. I didn't think it could stop it once the car was running.   The VATS can be bypassed but you may have the earlier system that Passkey II.

Replying to: imidazol97 (Feb 05, 2006 6:51 pm) I believe the '92 vats system is prior to the Passkey 1 & 2 systems. If the vats won't kill the car after it's started why does it keep setting that code when it dies? Any ideas? Thanks.Mike The discription of the code acording to alldatapro.com is "58"-PASS Key (VATS) Fuel Enable Circuit.....Anyone??? Replies to this message: morgi (Feb 13, 2006 11:27 am)
#1776 of 2228 Re: Clarification on HUM in my 2000 B-ville [giamomj] by jt9 Feb 10, 2006 (8:27 am)
Replying to: giamomj (Dec 10, 2003 6:18 am) We own a 2001 Bonneville that has just begun humming. Can you tell me what you found out about your car when it did this? I notice your message is dated Dec 03, and figure you either fixed the problem or got rid of the car (which is very tempting) Thanks in advance for any help you can share.
