Default Help with SECURITY Code

This code is driving my buddy bannans. It comes and goes. When its on, the car won't start, When it's off (security code) the car starts fine. Can anyone help identifying the problem. He has lost all confidence in his car, and afraid to drive it, in fear it may not start.
Thanks George
PS I stay on the C1/2 forum. so if you could PM me, I'll be sure not to miss any help or ideas.
Thanks again

If he cleans the key and it still doesn't work he can buy a bypass that goes into the harness in the steering column and won't have anymore problems. I beleave its called a Vats bypass and they sell them at either Ekler's or Corvette Central..WW
