Security glitch?

My name is chris, i'm a resident of key west and i own a 92 firebird formula that i purchased about a year ago. I have a question regarding the stock security feature that came with the car. On the right side of the tach there is a light that comes on and says security on the factory gauge. Before I start the car I have to wait for the light that says security to come on and go off before it will allow the car to start. Sometimes the light will come on and just stay on , only allowing the car to crank and not fire up. Has anyone else had this problem and if so any suggestions on how to remedy this very irratating predicement?

Re: Security glitch?

It's something else wrong - the security system (known as VATS) won't let the car even crank when it's activated. You can do a on VATS as well as read the tech articles (link on left pane at main screen) to see about VATS - but like I said car won't even crank when VATS doesn't get what it wants.
