first things first check reset the ecu, check which codes are flashing and check those systems maybe u forgot a wiring harness connection or its not on all the way, if ur starter isnt kicking than that is its own problems, check starter system, if its a gas fuel air issue with the engine turning just not turning over all the way then uve got plenty of small things to start checking.
