Using "alligator clips" to secure the resistor to the wires may interfere with the resistance reading. Did you see a 2-wire connector at the base of the steering column (plug terminal) in the wiring? If so, cut the wires abouit 1-ft above the connector (decoder side) and remove the plug, solder the resistor between the two wires, then reconnect the plug into the terminal. Remember, if it fails on the first attempt and the security light flashes, you must wait 4-minutes before another attempt; otherwise, the 4-min timer starts all over again.
