    disabling anthitheft

    I'm used to seeing pwm/serial/none under the security tab. For some reason I don't have a "none" option. The ecm is 97 buick park ave ultra, 3800sc in a fiero. Do I need to look somewhere else to disable the antitheft?

    iirc it was mainly done with dtcs, however, last time i did one I was using a different interface.

    Are you doing this because of a bad ignition cylinder or is it a conflict between the cylinder you have in the Fiero and and the 3800 PCM tune?

    The other choice may be to use the file from a 98 GTP as it did not have the function in the tune at all. Just may be the quickest, easiest way to fix the issue

    It is a transplant. I was hoping for a "key-in" fix rather than a "reflash, relicense, reload all tables fix." I remember having a problem with antitheft on one of these before, but I thought I had to email the file to have it removed. I thought that might be fixed by now.

    My experience on the V6 cars is to leave the vats set to PWM, and set the antitheft codes to no error reported.
