Can you hear the fuel pump run when you turn the key on?

Faulty coils, faulty emission sytem, wet or damaged ignition componets.
Improperly gapped spark plugs, your crankshaft position sensor.

When it was running, was their any service lights on in the dash ?
There were no lights on at all when it was running. It was perfectly normal with great power (no bogging or cutting out). I was told it may be the "key reader" and perhaps installing a simple "bypass" may fix the problem? I am really not knowledgeable at all!! I do know that the car worked fine for the entire day and we attempted to start again with a new battery but nothing this time. Fuel is fine, spark is fine and no error codes are being given. I have tried both original keys I have but nothing. Any help would be great. My understanding is that everything else seems to be fine. Thanks again.
