Someone broke into my 1999 grand am ruined ignition switch and plug ins need to know how to hotwire

Hope this helps a little? I know it's hard to read, I even tried to enlarge. Maybe you can hit, control plus, on your key pad, and enlarge enough to see wire colors and connector pin numbers or letters.

The best way is not to do this. You can't bypass security. Your problem is most likely a wire has broke. The wire goes to the security chip on top of the ignition switch. (replaced many of them) There are 3 of them , white, black, and yellow. They usually break at the plug. Problem is, you can't buy the plug. Junk yard part. You have to remove the lock cylinder to see the chip, and this is the only way to remove the plug.

Here's a link to your problem. How to Hotwire Car

tell you right now,call and get a tow truck,you are not hotwiring that car unless it is old school ignition.AND YOU DIDNT EVEN TELL ME WHAT MAKE AND MODEL,LMAO!!!

You can physically Hot wire it, but the theft system will stop you from driving it. You can read/learn about a bypass system here. http://www.diy-gm-security.com/

This year vehicle has an antitheft system on it. You may not be able to hotwire it. This link explains the system.

The car has anti theft system on it. You wont be able to hotwire it. Actually, that system probably saved your vehicle. This link explains the system, and ways to get around it if needed

pull plug wire and ground with screwdriver,etc. to see if the plug is firing during crank cycle...if not, pull dist cap to see if rotor button is turning (unless coil packs).

There are no wires to your key and tumbler. All the key does is pull a rod that is connected to the ignition switch, which is at the bottom of your steering column. I suppose if there is no "chip" on your key, and you can get the steering wheel to turn, you could pull on that rod to get it running.
