I was rearended the other day and after I got the car home it hasn't restarted. My husband replaced the battery and now it still wont start, it will turn over but wont fire up. I have the anti theft that you insert the computer chip under the dash to start it and was wondering if that needs to be reset and how to do it or if thats even a possibility.

Check the fuel cut off inertia switch-might be tripped resetting it might help to get that fuel upfront. Its a safety device that will shut the fuel completely off during an accident.
