My 2011 Ford Transit Connect has sporadic issue with starting after it sits. Have been able in past to start with a jump. replaced battery. Problem persists. 134k miles. I’m a total novice but would like help to pass on to mechanic. ( I have spent $$$ with 3 different shops trying to solve this). The car starts for them no problem so they say. But there it sits in my driveway. Immovable again.Advice much appreciated.

Here is what I am facing. 2010 Transit Connect engine was turning over but not starting, after some checking of the fuses under the hood it would no longer crank over. So had it sent to the dealership and they reported that the Main junction box under the hood had corrosion/rust from water getting into the junction box. The dealer stated that the junction box/wire harness had to be replaced, part and labor over $3500.00 (no way I can pay that much) They did get it running so I could drive it home. I have went through the junction box and cleaned all the fuses and contacts, I do not notice any apparent shorts in the wires. When I mounted everything back I am back to square one, no cranking over. Any suggestions would be great. I would like to keep from replacing the wire harness if at all possible.
