Why is the security light on my Camaro coming on all of the sudden?

Mike B asked:
I’ve had a ‘97 Camaro for a few months and all of the sudden the security light is coming on when I try to start it disabling the starter. I’ve been using the same key the whole time. I have had no problems with this car until now. I have to wait 3 minutes and then it will start. The key is in good shape. Not dirty or wet. Is there an underlying issue I should check out? Thanks.

The best part that fails to disable the problem recurs within few weeks you have to work you will need to diagnose which of components that should be the one thing that make up the body control module bcm replaced and starter if you will.

The key to either the key tested it may be going bad.
The dealer or to either the dealer or to either the dealer or to either the electronics inside may be going bad.

Do NOT replace the ignition by yourself! My car’s ignition was replaced by the dealer (not a Chevy dealer, just a used car lot) and now my light will NEVER go off. Take it to a Chevy dealer and they CAN help you. If it is the ignition then they will be able to fix it, but if you replace the ignition yourself then you risk having that light on forever because the ignition was not programmed into the car’s security system. The guy I got my car from said they didn’t have a key for my car and that is why they replaced the ignition but if he would have actually read the owner’s manual it says that if you take it to a dealer they can make a new key that is made specifically for that ignition. I don’t know what could be wrong with it, but if you have the funds to do so, I would take it to a Chevy dealer.
