Default Security system light stays on please help

I've had an on going issue that every once in a while like once or twice a year the Security systems stops the car from starting. Have power but you turn the key and nothing happens. You wait and cuss for 10mins and it'll start. I put the by pass on there a year ago but it happened again today and about a month ago. Today it wouldn't start for hours.... came back and zoom zoom it's fine and runs like normal. The difference this time is it started but now the security light wont go out so I'm assuming there's still a problem. Any ideas whats causing this and how I should go about having it fixed because this is a pain.

Thank you
Keith
