Hey all, I am new to this forum although I have used it a great deal to help me fix my wife's explorer. I had to replace the air inlet box behind the dash on the passenger side. I followed the link below to guide me through:

Once I reassembled the dash, the car will not start. The car will fire, just not turn over. The lights work, but not on automatic. The windows work on the door panel, but not the door locks. The keyless remote doesn't work either. Also, when I get out of the car, the radio stays on. It was getting late tonight, so I am going to take a half day and come home tomorrow and try and fix it but I need some help. Anyone here have any advice? Could it be a fuse? Could I pulled the dash out too far? Thanks in advance for any help.
 






Welcome aboard!! :salute:

Sounds like you forgot to plug something back in or you inadvertently disconnected something.

You say it "fires but doesn't turn over". I have no idea what that means. :dunno: Could you please be more specific? Is the engine turning over and just not starting?
 






Sorry, I wrote that backwards. You are correct: the engine will turn over, just not start. I didn't unplug anything except the wiring harness on the right side, but I plugged it back in. I guess I am going to have to take the dash down again and check for anything unplugged :mad:
