The security system is called Passlock. And yes it will turn off the fuel injectors when it starts to fail. Go check out this link, should help inform you about how the system works along with some ways to get around it.
If the security light is on, it can only be one thing. This light indicates a failure in the antitheft system that will eventually lead to your car refusing to start or continue running. Here is a link with alot of info, plus ways to beat this problem.
Then you found the problem its the brake switch at thhe brake pedal the solution is a replacement of the switch before you attempt check the fuse in the engine compartment and under the dash compartment if its good go ahead with the pedal switch (by the way the plastic bushing tend to strip apart )
Check for fuel and spark when it won't start or have a neighbor do it. Spray carb cleaner or starting fluid in the intake when it occurs to eliminate fuel problem.
It could be the security system...It often times masks its self as a starter ignition or battery issue....If this is the problem turn your key to the accessory mode for ten minutes...have jumper cables and another vehicle on hand should your battery die...This seems to be a common issue on these vehicles but if this is the problem it should start after leaving it on accessory for 10 min
look under the hood and on the left side in the far back there should be a few switches. to help you locate it..look for a green "square" fuse looking box. THATS NOT IT! the same shaped box but black is the relay switch. look by the wiper blades area.
If the car has air bags you're going to have to have someone that really knows what they're doing handle this job, please do not try this repair if your car has air bags as it can result in serious injury!
all the injectors are supposed to constantly spray fuel when the car is runing,
but on the hard to start it might be a worn out fuel pump or
a leak on the fuel pressure regulator, unplug the vacium hose from the regulator and if there is any fuel at all then regulator is not good
