Icon7 CRX won't turn over! tried everything!

CRX all of a sudden won't turn over. It just clicks. No dimming lights recently or anything like that. ECU code is giving 20 and 17.
Here's what I've checked/done:
battery is fine
Starter is fine
replaced ignition switch- new one didnt do anything so it's fine
replaced main fuse box- didn't help

maybe a bad ground to the starter somewhere???
I don't think it's the clutch switch because I can hear it clicking in. Absolutely have no clue what it could be now.

Check the ground from the valve cover to frame. If this isn't getting a good connection, the car wont even try to start.
