Just bought and replaced all three components of the computer, ignition switch and key. Still nothing, and now the dash lights only come on for 10 seconds once the ground is connected then off to never return until the battery is disconnected again, the key fob still works and door lights but nothing else.
I went over the wires and the grounds and didnt see anything and when it did start nothing was changed or moved so i dont think it could be that but what else is there other than the wires and computer?
I replaced all the relays under the dash and in the trunk out of my parts car which i knew worked.
Checked the ground in the trunk, the big one from the engine (on opposite side of the maf). What other grounds should i check? I also checked the battery one of course, the one under the seat.
I'm so frustrated with this car, i keep throwing money at it and nothing, the car is out in the country with the nearest dealer a couple hours away and no indy shops near by.

Just my logical thinking if everything worked and ran then didnt start. It would have to be electrical so ruling out, relays, clutch switch, ecu/immobilizer/key, starter, ignition switch manual&electrical, short of replacing the whole wiring harness and engine wiring harness what else is there?
