Flash VATS

[Programmer]

There's Pass"key" systems and Pass "lock" systems. The GM trucks up here use
passlock (can't see them doing both)--which is a dual hall effect switch in
the ignition cylinder. It doesn't matter what key you use...as long as it
rotates the cylinder. The PK3 (passkey3) has a coil in the ignition key.
