When I take the top of the fuse box off what am I going to be looking for?

I’m going to remove the ground wire from the TCM to the strut bolt and will be buying a new key to see if the original is worn out.

I don't know why you are focused on a worn out key. What do you think wears out and leaves it able to turn?
If the recall has not been done you can get a new key, cylinder and switch installed for free. If it has been done the ones you have are several years newer than your car.

I know that the mobile site is a bit hard to scroll; have you read all of the previous 70 posts in this thread?

In your first post, you said you checked all fuses and relays. How did you check them? Fuses are pretty easy to test, but how did you verify that the relays were good?

Hello,
At first I just looked for broken connection and tried turning the key and felt for a click? recently I used a malti meter set it to sound and made contact with the pins negative and positive on the fuse in the fuse box, all were good,
I used a 9V Battery and went across the relay at a angle to listen for a click,
I have been rereading all the posts from page 1,and restarting from there I'm on page 41 now.

Not a clue what you’re saying here. There’s not 41 pages in this thread.

Hello,
when I turn the key to the second position I get all dash lights and gages on after a minute the engine and brake light warning light are still on? Could there be a problem with the brakes and it’s not letting the car turn over?
