Listen under the car at the solenoid when the car is cold to see if you hear a consistent click each time your assistant presses the button with the key on. If you don't hear a consistent click, it might be the solenoid or the wires leading to it. Also, lots of people have resoldered the relay just to be sure. I'm no expert, but checking for the solenoid click is really easy and may tell you something.
