Turn the key and it won't turn over ( changed battery )

Ford Mustang 2006 4.0 186000 miles
I pulled the old battery off for about 5 day's. Replaced with a newer one, and my issue is it won't turn over ,When I turn the key on all the lights on dash is on including theft light I checked connections and tested relays and checked every fuse. Still won't crank. In leaning towards anti-theft or safety switch in the shifter. Any in put would be a great help. It's a 2006 v6 mustang.

I have a 2014 3.7 v6

Same issue with 6000plus I changed starter relays and fuses. Associated. Im trying the diode to pump fuse needed to order one from ford parts counter. 4 bucks for the fuse if this dont work idk. It seems like this issue isnt easy or straight forward thing. Ford said it could be, 1. Pcm 2. Wiring 3. Bad battery 4. Starter relay 5. Blown fuses 6. Starter motor 7. Transmission 8. ABS module.

I spent money on issues they said and im already close to a grand.

Brake system problems

Ford Mustang 2023 Mustang 2.3l Ecoboost  61000 miles
Brakes will do fine for a few days and then release after stops consistently slower until they simply don't let go. Tow it home or to the shop and let it sit for a few days and fine again. There have been two separate occasions where the collision prevention system randomly activated and it stored codes. It said hill assist unavailable and abs fault. Took it to the dealership and they charged me $250 something to put it on the diagnostic machine and tell me it's the rear speed sensors and the purge valve for the evap canister.

Ford Mustang 2010 Ford mustang 4.0l 140000 miles
Getting up to speed the car will shift to 2nd and then keeping the acceleration up, it wont shift to 3rd unless I let off the accelerator, then it will go into 3rd, and then it flashes the engine light and will run like shit for a little bit, until the light goes off and will be back to normal, until I kick it down again.
