Not getting a consistant read on the chip resistor in the key...got a spare key you can try? May be the contacts in the cylinder also...they go bad sometimes.

Mine was coming on from time to time several months ago...I sprayed some WD-40 (my first attack on anything) into the lock and the key...haven't seen it happen since....[fingers crossed]
