Couple things to check. I believe 1997 had a recall on ignition switch. Make sure yours has been done. Check your circuit breaker. Check codes, if you get "CKP/CMP out of range" could be either / or the crank and cam position sensors. Check your battery cable connections, could be a loose ground issue. I would start by pulling the codes first and see what comes up as that will guide you.
