Started the car, decided to check ATF before we went off to the mall, and while I was checking it it died. Wife tried to start it and it wouldnt fire - still plenty of battery as the starter was going strong. I tried, it started then died. I noticed the SES light would start flickering. I have a keyless entry installed(I have a kill switch wired into the ignition, but the wires are hooked up really good and it wouldn't let teh starter engage if that was it). The fuel pump still is going(can hear it quite well). Im going to try a few things, but I wanted to get this up so that maybe ya'll can start throwing the ideas will I try some stuff that probably wont work :)
 
well pulled a plug - its solid black and doesnt seem to be firing, thats prob the problem, but i dont know why the SES is flickering....
 
When your looking at your chip(unplug it and plug it back in) check for ANY moisture or corrosion on the top where the wires go into the ecm.Sometimes water finds it's way there and frigs things up.
 
oh...yup...the 3 prongs on the farthest right on the bottom are white with corrosion!
