This is either a bad SKREEM, or a bad RFID in your key or a bad 'antenna ring' around the key.

Unfortunately, this is not easy to diagnose. If you have not messed with the key and lost the RFID chip, it is almost certainly the SKREEM module. You can get one of those from Rob at Needswings for around $700.
I ordered the Skreem from needswings I added the Vin number to the comments section. I’m not sure if I needed to but I thought I read somewhere that they need it when I order one. I hope this will fix it. I really appreciate all the help I’ve gotten here I will let you all know how it goes I’ll probably need more help to get it put in though😰
