SECURITY LIGHT 91rs 3.1

Does anyone know why my security light sometimes comes on and prevents the car from starting? If I come back a half hour later it starts.

The ignition is having trouble reading the resistor in the key. This is the V.A.T.S. (vehicle anit-theft system). You can either get a new key made and hope that corrects it, otherwise you'll need to replace the module or bypass it.
