He highest probability of failures involves the ignition lock cylinder. It contains wires that relay the key value to the VATS module, and these will eventually break over time.

Thanks, you're absolutley correct. The wire was broke from ignition to the relay. I use my tilt steering wheel a lot so that probably contributed to my problem as well. Thanks for your help.
