hey guys, this weekend i changed my el fairmonts dash due to scuff marks and such and after i was done putting it together i went to flip the ignition and the car did not make a sound :/ the car has power everywhere but upfront, the front lights and indicators do not function.. any ideas what it could be? ive double checked the wires and fuses!

cheers :)

left hand side of the steering wheel is the bcm i think it will be blue in your car they are prone to playing up i think your smart lock will be playing up. put the window down and shut the door turn the key to acc and leave it for about half an hour the door locks will cycle you should be good to go after that.

have you re-connected the earth loom that was bolted to the earth log at the windscreen?

I'd also be confirming the square plugs have been bolted together and every other wire on the drivers side.
