look for a massive wiring harness bulkhead some were in the engine firewall over the passenger side but just find the massive connector approx. 100 wires in it you will find the pcm connected to it

pull it out an open the top of it and see if you can see something burnt cars of that year would pop capacitors on the mainboard it will be obvious if its a pcm issue otherwise you are tracking wires down I suggest alldata or mitchells on demand for a 1 car license for all info

also depending on your location you check the car over and make sure you don't have a rodent problem they like to eat wires creates all sorts of headaches
