Mechanics said no fuel pressure changed fuel pump, wouldn't run, they straight wired fuel pump to relay, still wouldn't run, they changed crankshaft sensor, still wont run, at same time headlights would turn on and stay on, they fixed that, car still wont run

It sounds like the ignition system doesn't have spark, will it run in starting fluid? I would watch this video because it goes over the easy stuff and will give us more information on what is wrong.

I have seen the CCRM go out and cause this issue, here is the location so you can check it out, it should fix the problem. It should fix the problem with the fuel pump as well. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
