I have a 2002 Isuzu rodeo I replaced the engine wiring harness and now my car won't start I though it was my starter so I replaced that and it still didn't start I then replaced my starter rely and it still didn't start. I don't know what else to do I was told that the computer might need to be reset because I disconnected the battery and my car might be in some kind of stop mode. Everything thing works when I turn the key but it want start it want make a sound can you please help me.

Could be the starter relay, transmission range switch and ignition switch-make sure the battery and connections are good-

So resting the computer wouldn't have anything to do with it? And what is the transmission range switch

Did you ever find a solution to the Trooper not starting? I have the same problem right now and figure it has to do with the security system after replacing the engine and battery. Thank you for your time.
