OK, a while back I posted about my car not starting. New starter/battery/cables/etc... later, it still does the exact same problem but I have more observant info. I'll turn the key, but the security light in the guage area stays on. Once it goes off, usually about 4-5 minutes, I can start the car and go about my business. Lately it has been getting worse and worse and sometimes does it to me 3 times in a row before it starts. the Captain Obvious side of me says it is the factory security setting that is screwing up, yet I have no idea how to go about fixing this. Should I take it to someone or is it easy enough to do myself? (the latter part of that question is almost laughable) thanks in advance for any help.

it is one way of checking the the vats is working correctly: http://shbox.com/1/vats_bypass.jpg

It might be the key or it might also be the ignition switch.
