so it turns out that it has something to do with my poorly wired alarm system, the alarm thinks the car has been stolen and is locking down most of the electronics, and halting the starter motor from cranking more than once. so now i have the task of following all the wires on the alarm and pulling them out, i opened the panel right below the steering wheel and a football size wad of badly crimped and taped wires fell out, a headache in the making. i did manage to get the car started for about 30 seconds before the alarm took over and shut it down, but i know its electrical at least, ill update if i make any progress on it.
