More then likely you have a connector that is not installed correctly or left off.

Here is a guide that will help with these issues but I suspect you will find the issue by running over all the connectors that you took off and make sure they are connected properly.

Next we can scan for codes and find out what codes are there just to find out what we may have that shows us what the cause is.

Let's start with this and go from there. Thanks
