Won't Crank and Start so I checked all the fuses and relays no blown fuses and relays
But I found there is no power on fuse #52 (start enable) 20A fuse located under the hood
Please assist me to solve the problem?

In the crank position is Fuse 52 hot?
In the crank position are any of the fuses #48, #47,#49 or #46, hot?

Do your wipers work? (fed from fuse #46)

Forgive my poor choice of the word "hot." I should have wrote, do you have power at both sides of the fuse.

Your result that all those fuses have current (Did you mean power? If you measured current that's fine, you can't have current flow without power) suggests to me that the Circuit Opening Relay has control and the relay is functional.

Can you see if the Circuit Opening Relay can be swapped with the Starter Relay? If so, see if engine cranks.

edit: those relays don't look the same.

Does starter relay have a diagram etched on it?

Yes I mean power
But Fuse 52 and 58 had no power on any side and all the other fuses have power on both side , All the relays are checked and working

You swapped the fuse or starter relay? Fuse 52 won't have power on either side because the starter relay coil is not being energized by the SAM module (whatever that is). Either that, or the relay is defective.

Can you feel the starter relay click?

If you pull the starter relay, there are 4 female terminals (?). Two goes to the SAM module so I'm not sure what voltage, if any, to read on those two. The two others , well, one one them should be grounded through starter motor. And the last one should have power when fuses 48, 47, 49 get power.

Can you find a diagram etched on the starter relay to indicate the load side pins?

If you jump the correct (very important or you will fry the SAM module) load side female terminals, the starter should spin.

If that is correct picture of your starter relay see if jumping terminal 3 and 5 will make starter spin. Strange how the SAM module will energize control coil for the Circuit Opening Relay, but not for the Starter Relay, hmmm. If pin 5 was the one you found as ground terminal, jump straight battery power to it.

Don't use a jumper wire on pin 1 and 2, bad idea. Use your test light.

Pin 2 and Pin 5 has positive power
When relay is energized pin connected to pin 3

Put your test light in series with Pin 1 and Pin 2. If light does not light in crank position, then, well, let's just say something's not right.

Do you have computer communication with scanner?

Checked pin 1 and pin 2 in series it’s not working
And did scanning too there are only 2 - 3 fault
SRS fault
Transmission fault
There is no fault related to crank or Start
