Default Crossfire not Cranking or starting

How are you doing guys?
I am back again with my crossfire questions. Most of you might know from 2 months back. I posted about my crossfire that was flooded in the trunk last year before i bought it. The car is currently in my garage and i have been working on it.

UPDATE: I have done a lot of testings in it and i realized that the electronics are working fine.
-- The Vacuum pump module in the trunk is working
--Power locks is working
-- interior lights are working

Basically all the electronics are functioning but the car won't crank or start. I have tried to jump the starter from the blue wire in the RCM and the starter sound to be very weak and the wire gets very hurt when i do that! Making me believe that my starter might be going bad.

Symptoms:

--When i turn the car, i get all the lights in the dashboard but it never goes away. It just stays there with the beeping sound.
--When i turn the key, i can hear the fuel pump coming on.
--when i turn the key, the module clicks in the hood
--when i turn the key, i can test the spark plugs and i am getting some power coming to the spark plugs.
--While the key is in start mode, i hear this annoying dieing sound coming from the wiper compartment(or whatever is called).

At this point i am pretty sure the electronics is good but i am not sure if the computer is recognizing my key or Skreem Module.

Please my friends, how can i test if the key is recognized?
At this point i want to rule out possible the starter or engine problem. So how can i bypass all the modules and turn the engine in the crossfire? Is that even possible?

Please let me know your inputs. You guys have been amazing and i thank each and everyone of you!
