Make sure battery has a full charge and connections all good. note the diagram. Use jumper wire on switch side of relay, in the diagram, the switch side is the left side of relay. If you use the jumper, the starter motor should crank the engine. If you try that, make sure transmission is in park or neutral and parking brake is set. Vehicle can't move. By jumping switch side of relay your bypassing the control side, right side in diagram. If you use jumper, leave key in on position, on position is just where dash lights come on, depending on the problem, vehicle may start and run? Check applicable trouble codes? As far as security system, if there is pellet in the key, it may be possible to bypass the pellet. If problem elsewhere in security system, bypassing that pellet won't help. just my opinion

I bought knew starter relay an ignition relay an the car still doing the same thing the battery charger up all the way so can I just turn my security system off somehow so maybe my car would start
