Does it have a security, anti theft system?

yes we think it does. There's no fob or anything. So we have never understood how it worked.

My experience with this was once on a Saturn, did the same thing with security system, it was a low battery. Sounds like it is a security issue. I cannot help you with any further, sorry.

A low battery is most likely the issue. (If it was an issue with the ek3 key the dash would say so)
