Have a 96 monte also that did the same thing.There are 2 small white wires located on the ignition tumblers and one of them broke causing the security light to come on and not allow the car to start.We ended up replacing the whole ignition tumblers to by pass the security system all together as the wires are very fragile.Good luck with that.In the Hayes manual it will tell step by step how to do that.
