Default Security Problems

i have an 96 camaro ss and recently my security light has been turning on lately and i think because of this my car is having problems starting. just a few days ago i went to start my car and the security light is now blinking and the car wont start at all, my battery is good and i just had my starter replaced a few months ago so i know thats not the problem. my key fob doesnt work anymore so i dont have a "remote" to unlock the car. could the security system stop my car from starting? and if so is there a way to deactivate the system all together?

Yeah I just unplugged it and put the resistor in the plug so there were no cut wires and taped it all up. As long as you get the right resistor it should fix it right away
