The security, antitheft or lock picture/icon is a visual indication that something in the car's antitheft system is failing. In most GM cars and trucks there is a hidden system that most people are unaware even exists. From the moment you put your key in the ignition, there begins a constant line of communication between your key's security chip or transponder, to the ignition's lock cylinder, and then to the car's TDM (Theft Deterrent Module). These 3 parts are in CONSTANT communication. If the key is in the ignition, then these parts are sending signals to each other. The security light illuminates when that signal gets broken, even just for a second. When the signal breaks, the car misinterprets this as an attempt at theft and goes into antitheft mode. The car thinks its being stolen or hotwired because it is not getting that signal from YOUR specific key. This is why the security light turns on and shuts down your vehicle. This link explains it pretty well.

It's probably not the key issue. It is more likely fuel delivery system. Not enough pressure from the fuel pump, or blockage/s
somewhere in the system from tank to injector.

The security light is on my 1998 chevy blazer after i installed a fuel pump after i dropped the tank

You are most likely experiencing a failed or failing Antitheft security system. Gm has had issues with this system since they first installed them in the early 80's. Low voltage, a dead battery, or time can trigger the failure on these systems. Contrary to what others may tell you, this system CAN be bypassed and eliminated. People will tell you that it is impossible, or even worse, Illigal. This is simply not true. It is your vehicle and you can do whatever you want to your vehicle. This site has a lot of information and can help you beat this problem yourself for far less than the $1000 dealer quote.

98 Chevy Blazer wont start after replacing heads

Make sure you have power to the fuel pump. On this model you should hear a quiet high pitched mosquito in your ear sound when you have all the lights on the dash panel just before you turnover the engine. If push comes to shove, take the fuel pump out, keep the power on it and run it through a bucket to see if you can at least pump water through it. Make sure you let it dry out all the way though before placing back in the tank.

My blazer will start but wont stay running long and the security light is on too and this after i put a new motor and trans in it it has been sitting over a year so i was needing help

By switching out the motor, you have most likely interrupted the antitheft system. The security light proves this. The engine starts, looks for the proper key code, doesn't see it, shuts down the injectors. There is a way to bypass this. Read thru this web page. Should find everything you need to know.

My 97 Chevy blazer has a Immobilizer ; doesn't start.

I agree with gasitjr.
I own a 98 blazer. When you try to turn over the engine. Does the engine rotate? If yes,it's not the starter or the battery. When you turn the key into the ON position before it starts can you hear an electric motor noise winding up? If yes , the fuel pump maybe OK but if the pump pressure is bad...blazer wont start. Pump runs about 300 plus labor. I've done it..It sucks
