When you turn on the car w/o cranking the engine, can u hear the fuel pump prime (make a humming noise for like 1-2 sec) in the back of passenger seat? If no, then it might be ur fuel pump.

the fuel pump is running. i checked it , and can hear it.
i think it the steering wheel lock out, but i pulled the 10 amp fuse.
i may try grounding out the pink wire on it .
I think is a no spark issue.

thank you for your help

If the ESCL is the problem, the engine will not crank.

This is true, you will have a no crank no start condition if the s/l failed. When you say all the codes cleared, what codes did you actually have stored? Let’s start with that. Your steering wheel unlocks when you turn the ignition on right?
