If it use to work and now it doesnt work, where do you start?

How can you test without the bypass module and vis versa?

Without each other it will not start.

Tried - reprogramming PLJX

Nothing...

Using the remote. Do 2 press.  Press once the SatelliteDish icon(2way pager) appears and 2nd press should start, but the icon disappear instead.

Have you tried replacing the battery in the remote? Did anything happen around the time that things changed (ie battery going dead or otherwise being disconnected, repair work on vehicle, etc)

Does anything work at all? If not check the power and ground connections. A poor ground can cause more problems than anything else.
The system is not in valet mode, is it?

Well here's the thing.  It hasn't been started all summer.  By the time I realized it wasn't starting it was getting cold. Between those times, yea there has been oil change and such.

When I first realized it wasn't starting was when I replaced the remote battery.  It was dead all summer, never bother to replace it.

This is my believe there's power to both the module and the bypass.
Starter.
1. When try to start, hear some kind of iniating from the module.
2. When in valet mode, it would show up on remote ZZzz

Bypass.

1. Tried reprogramming/learning it and it did.

One thing I didn't do is install other options, like headlights, door locks and etc.  Maybe if I install the headlights wire, it might show me blinking lights error?

By the way this is from a 05 colorado truck, no starter wire.

If you do not want to parking lights to flash when the system is activated you can get yourself a testlight as a temporary substitute. That way you can see the flash status without having to permanently connect the system to parking light circuit.
Since you are under the dash check the connection from the ignition switch. It sounds like you have a bad connection either with the RS or PLJX.

I'll have to double check when it's a little warmer out(detached garage here).  I'm thinking it should be ok because I soldered them.

Ok then, assuming the connections are good. Check that the outputs from the RS unit. Make sure they are providing 12 volts at the proper time.
