Could be an intermittent wiring/connector probem, is you SES light on when it happens? If so get the codes read, Autozone reads em for free, it will point you to the bad area.

It could be the module, or a bad ground wire connection to the block or frame. Could even be the ignition switch. Remove the module, take it to the parts store, they can test it for you before you buy a new one.
