i'm guessing it has something to do with your P.A.Ts system, which is the stock security system, sorry i have little knowledge of this but that would be my guess, read up on resetting it or whatever.

I HAVE YOUR SOLUTION!!!!!! pop the hood, open the fuse box cover on the driver side fender well, its a little black box, open it up, about the 3rd fuse down from the top is a yellow fuse with the number 20 on it, pull it out go to autozone, buy a new one, pop it in and bam...buy 2 actually one to keep in the car incase it blows again......this happened to mine, it has a fresh rebuilt motor in it, and after about 3 days of driving it she died, and wouldnt start, i took the whole steering column apart etc....to find out it was a fn 3 dollar fuse, go do that and be prepared to be amazed..i hope...goodluck
