    I cleaned the tb last night, but it wasn't too bad and seemed to be operating fine. But the biggest issue right now is the engine isn't being turned over to start up.

    That's right it will not until you see the words or the letters r e a d y. On dash . When you do attempt to push the brake and push the button do you hear the relays clicking behind your head in the trunk it's pretty loud click click click or click click . Listen carefully . You will hear them or you will not it's important to note if you're getting the relays opening closing and opening back up again that has to do with readying vehicle .
