Do you think maybe the power wire to the radio was connected to a wrong wire to the vehicle? May have blown the ignition fuse or some other fuse that effects the starting.
I checked every fuse.It fires for 5 seconds or so,then dies.Turn key off and do it again with same results

Remove the positive terminal from battery for 10 seconds then reconnect may reset computer.
tried that.Did not work,but was hoping it would
Taking computer to have it flashed by dealer to see if that clears it up
Did you reset the security or relearn the ignition switch
The run signal wire to the pump mat have inline fuse that could have blown hooking up the radio if you grounded something out
Where is the in line fuse
