Hi guys,

My son bought a VS V8 ute.

Randomly and annoyingly, it seems to trigger VATS while driving (my assumption) due to a brief flash of the security LED and CEL, which you wouldnt even notice unless you are looking at it, dash cluster dropping out (which is very noticable) and some weirdness to the engine (presumably fuel cut)

Along with code 31 after a paperclipping to the ALDL port.

We changed the keyfob and tweaked the slip rings but its still happening.

Is there anything else worth checking before I ragequit and pay a Man to turn off VATS as a test, and probably never turn it back on?
