#9 of 13 security (john) by ozz1 Jun 02, 2009 (8:35 am)
i am having the same problem with the security system, 3 times now the car wouldn't start and the message "clean key and wait three minutes" came up. i did and it started but this time the security light kept blinking. i called the dealer and he said the receiver in the switch was going and to replace it would be about 350.00, however he said it was possible to rewire the switch and bypass the security system. he says it works fine but that part of the system has been disabled. it is a 99 and a great car but i am not concerned about theft. anyone did this or had it done?

Replying to: ozz1 (Jun 02, 2009 8:35 am) Start with the basics.. Clean the resistor on your key with a Q-Tip dipped in alcohol. Try to start the car. If no luck, use the Q-Tip and gently clean the contacts in your key switch. If you look in the switch, you'll see two prongs just inside the switch, that will match up to the key resistor. If you're still having problems, the key switch may be bad. Two options are available... have a new switch installed or find a VATS bypass that matches the resistance of your key. The bypass is far cheaper and is an easy install if you have basic mechanical skills. If you have a Volt Ohm Meter, you can check the resistance and construct a home made bypass with resistors from Radio Shack.

I have a 1995 aurora it is doing the wait 3 min. thing so im trying to bypass but the problem I'm having is that I was told there were 2 yellow wire groups 1 was for the airbag and 1 was for the security but I can only find the airbag wire then I saw someone posted it was a orange wire group so I looked for that and could not find any orange wire with the two white wires in it.Could someone tell me the color for the 95 aurora plz?

It's Polar again. I have found a way to get the car started FREE. Simply turn the ignition key back to accessories and wait 'till security light goes off (or on - whichever is your problem) Starts every time and only a short wait. Hope this is useful.

Replying to: fastcat001 (Sep 29, 2009 5:55 pm) On the driver's side, take out the three screws holding the access panel on above the pedals. The screws are where your knees would be if you're driving. With the panel removed, you should see a large terminal block behind the emergency brake pedal, on the left side of the steering wheel. This terminal block requires a nut driver to be disconnected. The two wires you are looking for in position 1 and 2 from the top on the left hand side. The wires are usually seperate from the bundle and have a grey shielding around two white wires. This grey wire terminates at the ignition switch where they contact both sides of the chip in your ignition key.   Hope this helps!
