There is a fuse for the theft system, try pulling them out for a bit. Other than that leave the key in the On position for 30 mins as it's a security issue. Sometimes unlocking the drivers door with the key may help.

The problem is the new PCM you installed does not have the correct VIN number of your car.
You may be able to relearn the VIN using the preceedure below, however, there is no gaurentee it will work. You may have to have a dealer reset the VIN for you by way of a scan tool.
1) Instert key into ignition and rotate to run position (do not try to start engine)
2) Leave the key in the run position for 10 minutes until security light stops flashing.
3) Turn ignition key to off position for 10 seconds ( no more, no less)
4) Turn ignition to run position again for 10 minutes until security light stops flashing and repeat step 3 and 4 for (1) more cycle.
The process is a security verification step for the VTD system. ( Vehicle Theft Deterent)
Give it a try, let me know.

You can bypass the relay....I have a 2000 grand am gt and had the same problem.

Try starting it with the shifter in neutral. You might have a bad
Neutral safety switch.
