I apologize hopefully I didn't reply twice. I did starter first and then I put it back on the vehicle and was able to jump it with a screwdriver with the key on I don't know when it would start for a second then shuts right down . I did try to start it in neutral and that didn't work . What is your thought on tracking the passkey 3 security anti-theft wire down in between ignition switch and the neutral position safety switch and jump on it right to the other side of the PCM? Thanks Michael

Jim, thank-you for your response. I had to step away from the project for a day or two. I had to finish some other priorities. Anyway I do not have a clicking noise from the solenoid. But when I Pull the relay and jump it the vehicle will start for two seconds then die. Also I have removed the steering column cover and around the ignition switch there is a thin rectangle box with a hole at the top slipped over the ignition cylinder and it reads pass key lll . The key is labeled (pk3) below the plastic on the key.

Okay are you familiar with Solaris Pro Snap-on. I have one, I've only used it to troubleshoot sensors and mess with airflow mixture and regulate the injector pulse. I guess my question is if I got a used one I should be able to reprogram that with that tool

Its a fuse. Inside fuse box .i want to say #29 or 31. Right around there. Just check allbthe fuse that have passkey 3 or bcm in them. If you google the fuse box it will tell you which is what. Because i know my. Rendezvous doesnt have it on the cover of the fuse box. Change the fuse and problem solved.
