Your resistor chip on your VATS key make look fine but there are also contacts just inside your key way on your ignition that work with your key to make the connection to the cars computer allowing it to read the resistors value and if it matches, allows to car to start, if it does not make proper contact some time, it will not read the key and car will not start, probably you need to have the ignition replaced.......

The pass key fault light blinking and my car won't started in my 95 chevy caprise does that mean its something wrong with the key?

did you get a new key made without the chip? The car will not run without the chip in the key. Could be a bad chip in the key itself. Get a replacement where they sell keys with a key chip identifier.

95 caprice classic starts runs good then the doors lock and it shuts off and you wait five min and it will do it all over again. ive checked all the fuses and replaced the alternator the fuel pump fuel...

Just guessing but is there a security system in htis car?
Being a 95 it may have a factory security, the key does it have a chip built in?
You can bypass and use a regular key,
if none of these apply check idle air,

The pass key fault light is on and my car wont start

Mine did the same thing. I had to replace the ignition switch and haven't had a problem since. The inside wears out and don't make a conection to the chip in your key.

My 96caprice classic won't start,keeps saying keypass fault.what could it be? I also had the key tested and they said it was fine.

IIt is usually the lock cylinder gone bad. If the chip tested good in the key, truthfully, this might be best left up to a dealer.

Massage, pass key fault

there is a micro chip inside the head of the igntion key, when you put the key in the igntion the sensor inside the steering colunm will read the resistance of the micro-chip. If there is a match the engine will start. If for some reason the sensor will not read the micro chip the system will think some is stealing the car. I would try another key 1st, if this persist, the module will need to be replaced. Start with a new key, its cheaper.
You'll need to go a GM store parts departement with the old key, drivers license & registration for the dealer to cut a new key.
