The security light has finally come on to stay it appears. This has happened before but
I was able to get it to start by turning the interior/dash light knob all the way to the right until it clicks (into the fully on position). While your all lights are on try starting the engine it has worked for me before (sounds retarded but hey it worked) . Unfortunately this time it cranks but will not start it definitely has something to do with Passlock. However I am not sure if it is just Passlock or if there are some other electrical problems. Here's a neat example I got pulled over by a cop because my taillights weren't on the only way I could get my tail lights to come on was to have my dome lights on (by turning the interior lighting knob to fully on). I'm wondering if all this has to do with the micro chip in the key shifting out or if there is a short or if this is all due to Passlock security.
