This may sound crazy, but a similar thing happened to me when I swapped the ignition switch.

I had no idea what the hell happened. Out of desperation, I remembered once someone once told me that you can do a computer reset by disconnecting the negative cable from the battery and touching it against the battery terminal 3 times. Then reconnecting it.

I've never seen or heard anything like this before or since, but when you're desperate you'll try anything. So I tried it. It worked!


If that fails, Try what Particlewave said regarding the start lock relay. At the time this happened to me, I didn't even know a "'start lock relay" even existed.
