Ideas?
My understanding is that the security light should be blinking once the car is locked/armed. I'm not certain what the solid red light indicates.

Are there any codes?

If you think there is an ignition problem,

There are no codes. No check engine light. Just crank, no start, and now a solid security light.
Just going to keep going over it and hopefully figure it out, and sell it.

This is the best information.... Thank you!!!

I just figured out that my key will only lock the back door manually, but the key doesn't really turn.
So maybe this is the start of finding the solution.
Immobiliser is still showing solid red only.
Will post an update when I have one!
