Oh My! Talk about corrosion. That board was completely corroded. I dried it and intalled and still no difference. The car does everything but start. Lights come on, top goes up and down, windows do the 1/2 " close when the door is opened and shut, the car does everything but start. Any suggestions?

Also, I was wondering if I maybe the key needed programming as all the other things work except for starting? If I replace the control module would I still need to have the dealer replace and program a new key head?
