Yes sir, we checked all the fuses they all seem to be in right shape. I called a locksmith who deals with this sort of is you he said he could not get in with his computer something about and taught the shut down. I was wondering if you think it's possible a brain box would be blue and if there's anything I can do cheaper than taking it into the shop? I'm barely making it as it is these days. Thank you for your quick reply.

Thanks for the video but it sounds like the timing chain has let go. Lets pull a spark plug out and do a compression test you can get a gauge from the part store for free (they will lend you one) to confirm the failure. This guide will help:
