What tools do you have to work with? Hopefully a test light and multimeter
How have you checked to confirm the items you listed are good?

If you get it to act up again, you need to find out what is missing that prevents it from starting. Check for spark first,

Does the green key shaped light on the cluster stay lit up when the car is a crank-no start?

If the green key shaped light is lit up the whole time while cranking and not starting, then the immobilizer does not recognize the key and the car will not start.

Do you have a second key programmed for the car, and if so, does it always start the car?
