The key symbol on the dash normally will go out when the ignition is turned on, if it doesn't, you have a security system issue as I'm sure you've already guessed. I would start by checking the fuse box under the hood on the drivers' side of the engine compartment for blown fuses, this could be as simple as just a blown security system fuse. The under side of the fuse box lid should have all of the fuse labeling locations, you can also look in your owners manual for fuse locations and definitions. If you don't find any blown fuses you will have to go to someone who has a scan tool that can pull security system codes, the generic scan tools can only pull engine/transmission codes. I hope this info helps...(subytech1)...

My check engine light keeps appearing on my dash i have a subaru impreza estate 4wd 1993

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON TO INDICATE THAT A FAULT HAS OCCURRED IN THE ELECTRONIC ENGINE OR EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM, WHEN THIS LIGHT COMES ON A FAULT CODE IS RECORDED IN THE MEEMORY OF THE COMPUTER, YOU NEED TO HAVE THE COMPUTER SCANNED TO FIND OUT WHAT THIS FAULT CODE IS DO PROPER DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING CAN BE DONE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM, COMMON FAULTS ARE DEFECTIVE O2 SENSORS ON THIS MODEL.

I have a 1999 sti version 6 and it wont start even after ive entered the keypad numbers it turns over but wont start i

1. Locate the EFI main relay in the upper left side of the dash. Check the two Red wires for battery voltage with the key on. Check the Light Green wire for battery voltage from the computer key on.

2. At the computer check terminal 79 for battery voltage key on. Terminal 79 is a Yellow wire.

3. Check all power and ground inputs to the computer.

4. If the power and ground inputs are good at the computer check for a shorted 5 volt reference at the throttle position sensor and the boost sensor. A shorted 5 volt reference can cause no start, no spark with no injector pulse. 1. Check for the AC voltage waveform from the Crank sensor making it all the way to the PCM. On this Subaru, if it had a crank sensor signal, no cam sensor signal, you would see injector pulse, no spark. If it had cam sensor signal, no crank sensor signal, you would not see spark or injector pulse. Hope i helped if any more ?'s feel free to ask.....

Fault codes as follows

Those are the correct codes for a Subaru.
