Default Non starting D2

I recently purchased an 03 D2. When I purchased it the truck did not run. The previous owner had the ignition switch changed(may need it again). Looking for advice on were to start troubleshooting. When the key is turned the dash lights come on, the windows and seats work, but the engine does not turn over. Not a click or anything. The battery is good I used it for a trip to the Keys. I am suspicious of some sort of engine immobilizer. Any help would be appreciated. J

Do you have a working remote that locks/unlocks doors?

There's a red LED that should be flashing if the engine is immobilized.
Anti-theft status LED
A Light Emitting Diode (LED) situated in the instrument cluster indicates the condition of the anti-theft system and acts
as a warning to potential thieves that the alarm system is activated.
Input/Output
The LED has a dedicated signal from the BCU to indicate the status of the following:
l Alarm armed: The LED flashes at 10 Hz with a 50:50 duty cycle for 10 seconds, after which the LED flashes 50
ms on, 2 seconds off until the state of the system changes.
l Engine immobilised: If the engine is immobilised and the ignition is on, the LED is illuminated continuously. If the
engine is immobilised and the ignition is off, the LED flashes 50 ms on, 2 seconds off.
l Alarm tampered: If the alarm has been triggered, the LED flashes at 10 Hz with a 50:50 duty cycle.
l Handset battery low indicator: If the handset battery is low, the driver's door is open and the ignition is switched
off, the LED flashes two pulses of 50 ms on, 50 ms off, every 10 seconds.

Did you check the 150A mega fuse or the fusible link for the starter motor?

There is no red light on the dash blinking. Thanks for the info. I don't have an owners manual so most things I am finding by accident. Thanks again for the insight. j
