I was pulling off the shroud and broke of the copper housing that normally goes around the ignition barrel. The wires are way too small to figure out which went where ....
So i pulled of the skim module and now I am down to 3 wires coming off the circuit board below the steering column...
I tried hooking up a "key wrap" style copper wire lead around a key connected to these 3 wires, that did not work
so then I tried hooking it up to the 2 outside wires, that did not work, so I tried hooking it up to the 2 wires to the left, did not work, then did the same with the two wires to the right...
What is the easiest way about doing this with out buying another skim module?

I would suggest picking up a new PATS antenna from the dealership. Much more reliable than trying to decipher what is there and risk breaking something further.
