We need more info man...

What car do you have? engine swap? did you do anything before this problem happened.

Sounds like a ground to me or bad connection at your starter. Good luck.

symptoms of a bad ground but i would make sure that you took that alarm system out correctly and didn't mistakenly unhook something else.

No starts are very easy to trouble shoot. First off, check the battery voltage even if it's new. Next if you removed the viper alarm, did it have a remote start or starter kill unit hooked up to the ignition wires? If it does, hwo did you reconnect the ignition wires after you removed the unit? Hope it's not taped back together. If it's properly done, check to see if there's voltage at the ignition and lastly, check to see if power goes to the starter after you turn the key to start (requires 2 people).

If it turns over but just doesn't start then it's a little more involved but still not that difficult to trouble shoot. Give us more info.

ok so i did some reading and from what i understand is :

if your Egi pump relay buzzes it means that you have a bad ground in you F10????

what does that mean?

And how do i check if im getting voltage to my starter? ignition?

you need to get a voltmeter and another person or two, turn the ign on. dont start and use wires accordingly.
