My 2007 saturn outlook wont start or even crank. My wife started it this morning with the remote start but it shut off after 10 min. Now when I turn the key it does nothing, not even a click, but the rest of the electricals work exactly how they are supposed to. Replaced starter relay, load tested batt, soft reset computer.

It sounds like you have a positive battery cable that is shorting out and dropping the connection which will stall the engine. Please check out the cable here is a guide to help you see what you are in for when doing the job. Use a test light to confirm the connection issue.

Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.
