It will not crank? or
It cranks but will not start?
Did you notice any problems leading up to this point?
Is the "Check Engine" lamp on?
Is it limited to 3k in all gear ranges?
or just in 4/5th
Does it start to buck when you run up against the limited rpm?

I agree, get that code checked out first. But also check your engine to make sure it is getting spark and/or fuel. Start small and work your way up.

An ECM.
This is tricky since the ECM's very seldom go bad by themselves anymore. It's most often something else that has effected them.
has anyone ever crossed the jumper cables while trying to start this car?
