I had the trans. Rebuilt and after they installed it the alternator diode was blown so they replaced it and the fuse that it took out at the same time. Now the car won't start unless you jumper across the crank relay connections or put your test light on the #76 (yellow/blk) wire on the PCM. The theft light goes out on the dash in a few seconds after turning on the key. There is no radio, p/windows/, door locks or interior lights. There is headlights, brake lights, back-up lights and horn. I am suspecting the PCM, could this be it?

If it were your pcm, the car would never run, or it would run very bad.

The first thing you should look for is if the mechanic hooked all of your wires/connectors back the way they were supposed to be.

Also, I'd look at your wiring harness and/or the sensors.

It's very possible some/more of your wires were burned.
