Help my car keeps shuting off
I was driving and noticed my security light on, and thought nothing of it, but then I got home and tried to start it and after two seconds it would cut off the fuel. What do I do?

At least you made it home 
Do you have a CLB? Something is causing the BCM to signal to cut the engine off like when the column lock is engaged. If you have a CLB it may be defective. Also, try cleaning the resistor chip in your key with a pencil eraser. It may be just dirty enough to change the value enough and cause this. Just a thought. Post any codes you have and maybe someone will chime in with a more specific answer.
Good luck

My first thought is that your key is dirty. Try to clean the chip with alcohol. Also, take a can of air and blow out the lock cylinder.
