Make sure all the wires are plugged in tight.

No Better question, did you pull the ground wire off the battery before you went about plugging the new one in.

Did you make sure the number on the outside of your old one matched the number on the new one they gave you.

Explain a little more...it won't start...
does the starter spin the motor over. or nothing when you turn the key?

If the starter is turning it over...do you hear the fuel pump run for a sec or two when the key is turned to one click before the starter spins. If no hum then no fuel pump.

Long/short is you didn't undo the ground on the battery, fuses could have blowen or worse the ecm my be toast.

The PCM needs to be programmed (flashed) or the anti theft needs to be reset. My bets on the PCM. Dealer time.
