It sounds like the pats security system does not recognise your key, have you tried your spare key? or you may have a problem with the key transponder module or key antennae around the ignition barrel. or one of the modules on the can network, your car really needs to go on suitable diagnostic equipment to help sort it out. hope this helps.

If the security light is flashing that means the car does not see the chip in the key.
Either the chip in the key is missing or broken.
Or
The antenna ring around the ignition lock has gone bad or been broken.

You can take the key to a locksmith and they can tell you if the chip in the keys is there and operating OK.

MY INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHT STAYS ON.THERE IS NO ENGINE FAULT.ENGINE MALFUNCTION LIGHT. JAGUAR X TYPE 3.00 HOW CAN I TURN THIS OF. OR RESET IT OR REMOVE A FUSE

I assume that you have the equipment to read the OBD codes, as you say there is no fault, this being the case you should be able to reset the fault indicator with this equipment. Otherwise you will need to perform drive cycles to clear it (you will find these at http://www.bluejag.co.uk ) or just sit back and relax it will turn itself off in time.

How do i reset the oil light on a 03 saturn vue? i did the turn the key and press the gas peddle 3 times and that didn't work.

The procedure you used is for the 2006 > Vue, and will not work on your 2003. For the 2002-2005 Saturn Vue V4 or V6 - Under the hood you will see a black fuse box behind the battery. Open it up and you will see a red button, it is small and looks like a fuse but on the top it will say Oil-Res. Turn on the ignition & press and hold that button for about 10 seconds. You may want to have a friend sit in the driver's seat and watch for the indicator to start flashing, which indicates you've activated the reset. Turn off the ignition and that will reset the Oil light.
