The security light comes on when you first turn the key on and then goes off and stays off. I have not seen it light up at any time.

I agree, I am going to do the bypass with the resistors first that eminate the ignition switch and key as the reason for no start. If not corected then I will ordered the part to bypass the entire vats system. Will let you know what I find. Thanks

Ok, update time. I did the ignition cylinder passkey bypass with resistors and of course i still have the same problem. I really did not think it would help but wanted to try anyway. I did recheck for fuel pressure- 50 psi and still have the injectors flashing when cranking. It still attempts to start for merely a second then dies. I did use my actron scanner and I have the code P0629 - passkey frequency invalid code back again. I erased the code, did a crank, rechecked and the code was back. I am just going to throw this out and see what everyone thinks. I have read that the vats control board sends a frequency signal to the PCM to signal the injectors to fire. ( i think i understood that correctly) Could it be possible that the VAtts controls board is not sending the signal and that is where that code is coming from? Let me know if I am way off the mark. Thanks

Yes, you did say that earlier, now I understand what you meant. I will not be able to check for signal on pin d14 until this weekend. I will post what I get. Thanks for the info......
