Honestly, at this point I think it’s going to be FAR cheaper to just bypass everything and put the ignition and accessories to a hard wired toggle and just use the key to unlock the column. Between the fried harness, cob jobed remote starter mess, and the hackjob of a mess that garage did under the dash you’ll(I’ll) be tracing stuff for a long time trying to sort the issues out.
