the circuit board on the pass key box is blown. no dealer has a pass key box with a key. I replaced it once with a junk yard part. it lasted about a month and went out again. Is there anyway to by-pass the pass key box? This car runs well and would be a shame to lose it because of a security issue.

I have a Oldsmobile 88 had a problem with the vats security system there’s a company called newrockies that sells a box that bypasses the entire system got it on my car no worries doing great cos about 250 bucks but it’s worth it
