Did you replace the ignition for a new or used one? If so, it's your vats. It doesnt recognize the key.
On a side note, my 99 I just sold, it's license plate was BA LS1. lol2002 Z28 Camaro A4

Your BCM is programed to get the amount of resistance from the key, when that happens it allows the TDR to ground the starter relay which allows it to fire. It also tells the PCM to let the injectors do there job.
If the BCM doesnt get that resistance that it wants...it flashes your security light and you sit there in anguish.1998 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 - 6 Speed
