put the ecu from the blown engine in im pretty sure your anti theft system is tied into the ecu in which case the roller isnt reconizing the ecu from the new engine

 

I changed the ecu because I kept hearing I needed the ecu that went with the engine that was running, I am really stuck, if you have any more ideas please pass them on,
thanks a million

 

someone posted that the electronics might not be communicating, I tried to start it again and the theft light is blinking very fast, it is my sons car so I don't know if that is normal or not.

 

ya its theft light is blinking because your using the ecu from the totaled car the new car doesnt reconize it. so if you have the ecu that came out of the rollor put it back in. if not you gonna have to go to the dealer or find somewhere that can unlock you new ecu

 

^^^^^ this

 

thanks, after I sent you the message I changed the ecu back to the one that went with the car, the theft light then looked normal but..............it still didn't crank


thanks for all your replies I really do appreciate it

 

try disconnecting the battery for 10-15 minutes to ckear any faults in the anti theft system then try starting it again

 

This is why I asked if the PCM was energizing the injectors.

 

I do not know how to check to see if the pcm is energizing the injectors

 

Use a test light or volt meter to probe the connections at the injectors. Have a buddy crank the car over. If the light flashes or the volt meter pulses then the injectors are firing. If you get nothing then that means the pcm is not energizing the injectors and you have a problem with the fuel system. It could be a missing ground, or just a PATS problem.
