Key won’t start 2005 Kia sorento lx
In the price of trying to remove a different fuse, I
accidentally pulled the power train fuse while the car
was running. This fuse happens to go to the pcm and
main relay. Car immediately died, I replaced the fuse,
key still does nothing. I have checked every fuse with
a tester and every relay as well. All are good. I happen
to have a spare pcm, so I switched it out, problem
remains. Of note, I opened the starter relay (which has
resistance on the multimeter, so should be good) with
the key on, I can use my finger on the side to start the
car, I can also start the car with a nail bridge on the
starter. Long story short, I know I should not have
done that while running, all relays and all fuses are
perfect, pcm is different, same problem remains. To
the best of my knowledge my car does not have a
chip key, as I can start it with a simple copy from the
hardware store, and the keyless entry still works. Only
thing that doesn’t is the key. No cranking, no clicking,
just perfect silence, all lights and hear and radio also
come on. PLEASE help !
