Now after going through all the trouble to replace everything, and after taking half the car apart to fit this new part, I now turn the key in the ignition, (which now turns smoothly), all the lights on the dashboard light up, but the car wont crank???

Any suggestions???
well, I will take a long shot here....if I were stealing this car, I would pull the barrel apart, and hot wire it....but, the security system in this car would shut it down...so, I'm thinking it may need reset....the skreen may be affected as well...just don't know without a little research...try the disconnect the battery for a half hour first...
