Just disconnecting the battery resets the SKREEM. It will give you 2 or 3 more cranks. Based on what you are describing, I think your SKREEM is done if all you get is 2 or 3 cranks, a start, then die, then NOTHING.
The real clue that it's the SKREEM is that you get 2 or 3 crank/starts then you get NOTHING until you disconnect the battery. THAT is either a bad SKREEM a missing RFID chip in your key, or a bad ECU.
The answer is to reach out to James at The MSS.
