Default Asking for help/advice regarding ECM/Immobilizer

I'm having ECM or Immobilizer problems. Its sporadically working. Sometimes the car "recognizes" the key and the car starts up without issue; drives fine. Other times the green key light stays on blinking car won't turn over. The ECM won't release the fuel supply and thus the car will not start. I've tried all keys bare; both fuses are fine. I know this car by rote. I'm positive that the problem lies in this system.

The car was checked at the dealer and they said theres no problem. They have to replicate the problem in order to do anything. The car is unreliable to take anywhere. When I CAN start it I drive around then bring it home (without shutting it off). The situation is, I could have the car NOT start at home have it towed in, only to have them start it right up and say theres no problem.

I'm having problems with the dealer and with Honda to resolve this. I don't want to mention specifics because I'm trying to work it out (4 weeks now). My emotions towards this whole ordeal leaves me sick inside because of how poorly both dealer and honda have treated me.

The big meet is coming up on the 20th and way things are going now, I'm probably going to miss it.

If anyone can offer me advice or solutions, please PM or email me. I'd greatly appreciate it.
