    02 Grand Am 3.4 VATS turn off

    Can the VATS system be turned off in this car so I don't have to spend 350.00 to fix it?

    The V6 car's VATS can't be set to NONE like the V6 trucks and V8 vehicles. The V6 cars can be set to either Serial (stock) or PWM.

    I would be interested in an answer too....

    I initially wanted to turn off VATS but seeing as how I can't..what is the benefit of switching to PWM?
