Does it crank and not start, or not even crank?
What is the status of the security indicator, is it on solid?

Thank you for the reply. The security is blinking which it has always done and will not crank.

The next check would be for signal at the starter, it comes on the small wire(small stud). This can be done with a test light. If it is not getting a signal, the next most probable cause would be a failed ignition lock cylinder, where the wires that carry the key value to the VATS module have broken.
