You didn't disconnect the battery for any reason did you. Other than that it sounds like just a coincidence to me.

Prob. just a dead battery. Check the voltage then charge it!

No I left the battery on. Thing is, it worked perfectly fine before I started the process. Now when I start the car, it just sounds like it wants to start but doesn't and the doors unlock and lock. Do you guys think disconnecting the battery for 15 mins and trying again might work?

give it a shot. maybe it got weak while you were installing the brakes. but i can tell you with absolute confidence, your rotors wont kill your battery.

hey CroDalmatinac, is the engine cranking
over?

if yes, then check the inertial fuel cutoff switch

if no, then put the battery on a charger for a few hours

Forgive me for my ignorance but do you mean the Fuel Pump Shut- Off Switch?
