You can also double de-clutch it. That’s how ppl drive some of the earlier super cars where their synchros are weak. Think of it as a feature from super cars of that era.

2013 Scion FR-S Died While Driving

Check OBDII power ( forgot which pins, search how to check OBDII power)

Then look for fuse to ECU

Check for all ground points in engine bay. Clean them with contact cleaners or deOxit
