It might be a fault with the anti-theft feature. Ford has had several recalls due to this. Web search for safety recall on faulty key-in-ignition chime. I had the same problem with my 1998 Ford Explorer Sport although it started chiming all by itself. On my Exlorer there is a set of 5 wires in a yellow sheath running from the ignition module to a brown connection point/harness in a very uncomfortable position directly under the steering column above the pedals. I unplugged the connection at this point. The pinging, or ringing chime comes from the multifunction computer located under the dash behind the radio. Hope this help.

96 Monte Carlos are equipped with GM PassKey 2 (the little chip you see in your key. Without that key, the car cannot be started. If someone tries to hot-wire the vehicle, not only will the computer not start the car but will also disable the starter and fuel injectors for thrre minutes before the car can be started again. To make a long answer short: Yes - this qualifies as an ignition immobilizer.

How do you remove the ignition without the key 94 caravan?
The caravans have an ignition key module affixed`to the steering column by three screws. Remove the plastic covering the key switch and you will see the screws. Remove the screws and the module can be replaced. My module stopped working so I was going to break the switch to get the car started, when I noticed the setup, so instead of breaking anything I just removed it and went to the wrecking yard with my old key and the key worked on the second caravan I tried. How about that luck!!!
