Disconnect the Edge and see if anything changes. Is the battery good? Check all connections and see if there are any codes. With the little info to go on, that's about all the help I can offer right now.

When the red light is flashing rapidly it indicates it is in theft mode and will not crank. You will probable need to take to the dealer to have checked out. On some vehicles if you leave the key in the run position and jump the starter wire by the battery you can get them started to drive home and save a tow.

The PATS sensor in the column may have failed.
I had a problem with the sensor on my '08 and had to have it replaced.
