i replaced the battery yesterday in my sr20 and then when i went to start it my starter just spun. i tried to push start it but it would kick then bog down.

now when i try and start it the motor wont turn over, i dont think the plugs are getting any spark, the blower on the inside wont work, the lights wont flip up, and a bunch of fuses have no power (just to name a few of the problems)

please help!!!

What happened to your old battery? Did it die or did it go out spectacularly?

no it didnt die, i just felt the need to switch it....but i replaced a fuse and everything like the blower and interior lights work now but it still wont turn over, could it be flooded? and after further evaluating and backtracking i relaized i had switched the terminals, so im gonna try the ignitor chip, and if that doesnt work then the ecu
