Not 100% certain on this, but shouldn't the light come on for about 5 seconds after the ignition is switched on to indicate that the system is ok. Does the light stay on constantly or flash?

Thanks for quick reply Woody
Light comes on when ignition turned on then goes out..than comes back on when engine cranked....seems to be on constant rather than flashing while engine turns over.

Just a thought but have you tried your spare key, it could be that the key you're using needs recoding.
