Most probable cause ?
no shift panel lights,
no start.
ACC side of the ignition works, all systems work.
IGN side of the ignition works normal.
Strat position goes dead when you try to start.

Thanks for the help.

Shift panel lights went out on mine, lost power to the panel. Apparently broken wire. Shop installed a new wire. All good.

We have discovered the problem,, we changed the Transmission ECU,, it did not fix the problem,,changing the major Battery cable fixed it.

corrosion ate the end of the cable nearly off. it will show continuity, but when place a load the cable would fail.
