You may have left something unplugged.The message you have has to do with the immoblizer.Try disconnecting the battery touching the cables together hold together for about 1 min then reconnect.Lock the car with the key and unlock then try again.

Tech,
I tried unpluging the battery and touching both terminals for 1 min then locking and unlocking the doors. No luck.
error "start prevented try again'

Either something is unplugged or they key lost its programming.If i may ask why did you replace the dash in the first place?Did you transfer all your old parts to the new dash?If not that may be your problem.If so you might need to find someone eith a scanner to try to pull codes.The message you are getting is for the immoblizer and its not getting signal from the key for some reason.You plugged the light bye the key switch right?That is the antenna for the immoblizer.
