Default Motor wont start and hazard lights are on after motor replaced???

Back again. Just got done getting the newer motor in and after connecting the battery the hazard lights are going/cant turn them off. Also the motor wont start, just keeps trying to turn over. Tried a few times thinking the fuel was working its way in. No go. Any suggestions on the hazards and no start? Thanks

Anti-theft system possibly?

hit the lock and unlock button on the key.... if you don't have it, put the key in the door and lock and then unlock the truck...

Okay, found that the hazards were the inertia switch that I nicely broke free from the firewall. I reset it and hazards are off. Still no start though.

when the motor was replaced in my disco, it was the same thing spun over for 10mins and nothing. He finally hooked up the computer to the truck reset a few things, manually turned on the fuel pump through his computer interface and next time he hit the key it started and ran..

Make sure your crank sensor is plugged in.
Did you reset the inerita switch?

Thanks guys, I found that it was the crank sensor Mike, Plugged it in and she runs pretty nice. Running a bit low rpm at idle and stalls every so often but for the most part sounds good. I may have some crap gas in it since it sat for so long.
