Default No start issue - cracking n spark but alarm code?

I was doing lite work on the truck. Removed intake manifold and replaced spark plug wires, new intake gasket, valve gaskets etc. nothing major. Now it will not start. It cranks over… I have spark - also new crank position sensor installed. So I got cranking and spark it no start. I have these codes the no start. Is something with the immobilization stopping fuel or something?

Did you press the inertia switch on the firewall?

this sounds about right… how do get this back to normal? My truck doesn’t have a fab key. Can I reset the inertia switch manually or via my port reader?

I reset it , but still no start. Is there something with regard the alarm fault code I can reset or adjust using my scanner computer? Seems like that involved in my no start.

You can lock and unlock the drivers door three times. Is your security in the cluster blinking? If not, unlikely it is security. Swap the old CPS back in and see if it starts.

The red light on the cluster is not on at all. I think will swap my old CPS sensor back in and see. I think it’s Amazon china special so who knows…

Maybe check the correct spacer on the CKP sensor?

spacer for the crank position sensor? I did install a quality Bosch part so. I was using my diagnostic scanner shows “key not detected”. My key broke off while back and I drilled the barrel out and been using screwdriver - which was working. I had in garage for months doing a lot of maintenance work. I also ripped my ignition apart more to stop the steering from locking. It has not started since. I am thinking it’s finally had it with my Jerry-rigged ignition. I found a used ignition w keyfab and matching door lock. Seems logical with the “anti theft codes” “no key code” and the fact chopped my ignition up pretty good? Anyways will be here in few days - hoping that solves it. I love this truck. I bought cheap and been tossing a lot coin into it to get it running well. I plan to put a suspension kit of etc and built it up. It has zero rust on it also. Great truck… just frustrating after all the work I have done not starting. So hoping for the best.
