Car is running a little rich. Drives a little while then cuts off. Car will turn over but won’t crank but after a little while it’ll crank. While car won’t crank, I listened for the fuel pump and didn’t hear it. Fuel pump and filter has been changed. Fuses checked also. Same thing. Coolant fan does not come on. Even after running the heat & sitting up for a while. Ran a cable to the battery and to the fan port to check and it came right on so it looks as if it’s not getting any power. Listened to the CCRM to hear it click and it did. A/C doesn’t get cold either but don’t think it works anyway. Need HELP ASAP.
 
Visually check all fuses.

Test for key on power in/out of fuse F2.34, F2.2 and F2.8.

IF no power into fuse F2.34 suspect an ignition switch problem.

IF no power into fuse F2.2 & F2.8 suspect a CCRM problem. A CCRM problem could be something as simple as a bad CCRM ground. Or a bad CCRM. More tests will be needed to narrow down exactly what is and isn't getting power.

Note, IF the CCRM is not powering up don't be surprised that the PCM will not talk to a ODB2 scan tool.

I’m headed home to check into all of this. Changed majority of those fuses and they weren’t blown. The ignition switch is interesting because I have to wiggle the keys a little to start my car.

If your wiggling the key to get it to turn that is a key switch problem, likely nothing to do with the main problem
If you have to wiggle the key in the start position thats a ignition switch problem
