Make sure battery has a full charge and connections all good? There is a way to bypass some of that stuff just to see if starter motor will crank the engine? If you try that, make sure transmission is in park or neutral and parking brake is set. Vehicle can move. In the diagram, note the crank relay. Pull the relay, in diagram, note switch side of relay, right side in diagram, use a jumper wire between those cavities, the starter motor should crank the engine. Give me a second and I'll try to post relearn procedure for security system?
