Then you have a corroded loose or bAD connection on one of the battery cables. Does the positive battery cable at the the starter have battery voltage to it with the key in the start position?

If the purple wire to the starter is giving power to the starter then the security system isn't disabling the starter. Does the starter make any noise?
