hi did you try jumping the starter relay to see if it crank try that and make sure you have power ...if it cranks by jumping the relay then you have a controller problem ....// also does it give any indication of the security key being bad Remove the starter relay as described in this group to perform the following tests: 1. A relay in the de-energized position should have continuity between terminals 87A and 30, and no continuity between terminals 87 and 30. If OK, go to Step #2. If not OK, replace the faulty relay. 2. Resistance between terminals 85 and 86 (electromagnet) should be 75 ±5 ohms. If OK, go to Step #3. If not OK, replace the faulty relay. 3. Connect a battery B+ lead to terminals 85 and a ground lead to terminal 86 to energize the relay. The relay should click. Also test for continuity between terminals 30 and 87, and no continuity between terminals 87A and 30. If OK, refer to Relay Circuit Test procedure. If not OK, replace the faulty relay. CAV FUNCTION 30 B (+) 85 IGNITION SWITCH OUTPUT 86 PCM-CONTROLLED GROUND 87 STARTER RELAY OUTPUT 87A NO CONNECT RELAY CIRCUIT TEST 1. The relay common feed terminal cavity (30) is connected to battery voltage and should be hot at all times. If OK, go to Step #2. If not OK, repair the open circuit to the PDC fuse as required. 2. The relay normally closed terminal (87A) is connected to terminal 30 in the de-energized position, but is not used for this application. Go to Step #3. 3. The relay normally open terminal (87) is connected to the common feed terminal (30) in the energized position. This terminal supplies battery voltage to the starter solenoid field coils. There should be continuity between the cavity for relay terminal 87 and the starter solenoid terminal at all times. If OK, go to Step #4. If not OK, repair the open circuit to the starter solenoid as required. 4. The coil battery terminal (85) is connected to the electromagnet in the relay. It is energized when the ignition switch is held in the Start position and the clutch pedal is depressed (manual trans). Check for battery voltage at the cavity for relay terminal 86 with the ignition switch in the Start position and the clutch pedal is depressed (manual trans), and no voltage when the ignition switch is released to the On position. If OK, go to Step #5. If not OK, check for an open or short circuit to the ignition switch and repair, if required. If the circuit to the ignition switch is OK, see the Ignition Switch Test procedure in this group. 5. The coil ground terminal (86) is connected to the electromagnet in the relay. It is grounded by the PCM if the conditions are right to start the car. For automatic trans. cars the PCM must see Park Neutral switch low and near zero engine speed (rpm). For manual trans. cars the PCM only needs to see near zero engine speed (rpm) and low clutch interlock input and see near zero engine speed (rpm). To diagnose the Park Neutral switch of the trans range sensor refer to the transaxle section. Check for continuity to ground while the ignition switch is in the start position and if equipped the clutch pedal depressed. If not OK and the vehicle has an automatic trans. verify Park Neutral switch operation. If that checks OK check for continuity between PCM and the terminal 86. Repair open circuit as required. Also check the clutch interlock switch operation if equipped with a manual transmission. If OK, the PCM may be defective.

wasn't sure which relay you will have so I added both pics
