I bought this vehicle. Said the computer was bad. So, I bought a new computer or ECM module. I installed it. Installed a new steering system. Now I can get all the lights to work, but when I go to start the vehicle, it will not turn over, please help me.

Hi,

If you replaced the ECM and steering column, was the new system programmed to recognize the new key? Is the anti-theft light staying on or flashing?

If it is, try this. Turn the key to the run position and allow it to sit for approximately ten minutes. The anti-theft light should turn off. See if it will start at that point.

Let me know.

Joe
