engine is 3.8l or 5.3L??????
is the starter silent or not.??
not old what the starter motor actually does.
nor if IMMO lamp still fails. <<< doing its job that, by DESIGN
no engine size told
no country told sorry exports are not like USA cars.
this is www, the world wide web , every car on earth can post here if you are not aware of that.
working tool free, no DMM meter, no scan tools?????????
fixing modern cars tool free is expensive as you proved, sorry.
learn to new ASE words, no start, or no crank.
which one fails, no crank can be , silent starter, or clicks, or chatters or free wheel spins but not the crank spin,see all those ways for any stater to fail, seen them all me. ever one and never failed to cure rules and now schematics posed by me, per below:
rule #1 the starter relay is 100% controlled by the PCM
proof here:

next up is PCM
the PCM now runs this show, 100% if above is good
the PCM will not crank if the transmission fails.
the transmission must signal gear P or N or fails.
blocks cranking in gear by law USA. if here you are.
if battery test fail, as seen by PCM it may block cranking so park and brake lights, stay working (safety first and all that)
I make no claim to knowing all PCM logic rules but here are some
the engine hood switch open or bad, will tell the BCM to not allow cranking on some cars and this one has that switch
BCM tells PCM this
the scan tool tells you if any of this fails. so we do scan it first

and VTD (fails for)
- Body control module (BCM)
- Theft deterrent exciter module
- Powertrain control module (PCM)
- Ignition key (Transponder)
- Ignition lock cylinder
- Security indicator<<<<<<<<< no hacks here SORRY

if car has remote vehicle start (RVS).
things get dicey
this and more.
The remote vehicle start (RVS) will not operate under the following conditions:
- The hazard switch in the ON position.
- A hazard switch diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is set.
- The vehicle hood is open.
- A hood ajar switch DTC is set.
- An automatic transmission shift lock control system DTC is set.
- A/T can not tell what gear it is in,(park is answer)but. fails.
- The ignition key is in the ignition.
- A vehicle speed signal is detected by the engine control module (ECM)/powertrain control module (PCM).(already running)
- A vehicle DTC that illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL).or called SES. CEL is normal name used.
- doors not locked.
this option itself failing? sure can effect normal operations of car like starting and driving
RECAP time
all fuses tested good
is starter dead silent (grrrrrrrrgrrrrr dead?) sounds
IMMO lamp glowing"????
scan the OBD2 16 pin DLC port now. see why now. easy. do it now
modern cars must be scanned first.
or vast key problems are not known by you and we all fail like that.
not just you.
the statements of not stolen question is no dig.
learn that some cars are sold in auctions from Ins companies.
they totaled out a car lost long ago paid it out and now are selling a IMMO ****** car. (owned now by them , their title too)
so see, we do not know the history of any car at all.
we only know the iMMO lamp glows and only scanning the car will tell you way.
now You have 2 schematics see some logic there.
still not told is starter silent. (the car may have 2 problems.
