Don't remember process of resyncing key, found it on forum somewhere.
If I remember right, if battery is out of fob for a certain amount of time (seconds), need to resync key.
Everything else appear to be working as it should?
Good range for unlocking / locking door with fob?
Does it feel like the skicky key mod has been done?
The fob is in very bad condition and the remote function is not working. I don't have any experience with the sticky key fix.

If you think that it is your starter is refusing to spin, the test is to smack it with a ball peen hammer while someone is turning the key.
I was hoping for a safer way, haha. I did try applying 12v to the wire that connects to Pin 1F of the pulse module, but it didn't crank over. Actually, the pulse module wasn't getting 12v on Pin 1B either from the ignition, which I suppose it why it was send power through Pin 1F. However, the pulse module in the car seems to have "04 Chr M/T" written on it. So it might not even be the correct module, since mine's an auto. WTH?

Also there's a way to test the starter (8F-33) in the manual. You know the starter is engaging , even though, intermittently. Remove an replace (clean) the connection on the starter (+ an -). Check continuity on the solenoid. Here's where I stop, with what I see. Hope it helps, let us know.
I hear clicking on the RCM only after I reconnect the battery cable and only for 1 or 2 times and it's gone. I tried sending power to the starter solenoid using the wire that connects to pin 1F of the pulse module, but it didn't crank.
Thanks for everyone's suggestions, and I'll be downloading the service manual tonight. I think it's time to educate myself on how the systems work in these cars and how to read the damn diagrams. I'm currently confused at best when reading them.
