Default Security Warning light

I have a 2005 V6 and have had hard starting problems and lately a misfire? while accelerating and the security waning light flashes on. When it won't start, a shot of starter fluid fires it up instantly. The misfire with the warning light has only happened a few times over a couple of months, Any ideas what the problem might be?

The security warning light is for the PATS system and once the
vehicle starts and the PATS is satisfied, it has no bearing on
the engine functions....
2 totally unrelated problems....
U got a wet SJB by chance?
