Hi there I will do all I can to help. The first thing I would do is check your battery voltage with a multimeter, should be at least 12V. Also if possible do a battery load test, this requires a special load tester.

Ok, in these vehicles sometimes the ready light will not come on if the gear shifter is pressed too early on. as well as try to check the key fob battery if there is any maybe the vehicle is not detecting the key properly. It would not hurt to run a scan on all the modules to see if there is any hidden code related to this issue.
