MR did not start - Issue with Cranking

Sup fellas, I haven't logged in awhile. Hope all is well…

So, I drove the car in the morning, parked it on my driveway. Tried to start it back up in the afternoon and no ignition. Last time this happened it was the relays that went bad. Had Sean @FFtec take a look at the tune and all was well. Battery was changed to Optima and got new relays. This was several years ago.

After figuring out; Spark, Battery, and relays.. tried this method I found on EvoXforum..
Pull out the injector relay, . fired up and burn out the remaining fuel in the cylinders (usually takes about 1 second) then the car died. Plug the relay back in and fire it up, and feathered the gas pedal.. fired up, but now I have an "Engine Service Light" on, clear it? Or is there something else?
Has anyone had these issues? I'd hate to be in tahoe snowboarding and this shet happens, (like last year, lol)
Should I get the cranking re-tuned?

Did you scan the CEL to see what the code was?

Injector circuit, but that's because I took out the relay and started the car. Did not throw any codes when it first wouldn't start. That's why I thought it was the immobilizer.
