I tried starting it, no crank no start. All lights windows chimes work, but the odometer is showing dashes instead of numbers. I lost my keys a few days ago had a lock smith come out and program a new key it worked about 6 times starting the car now it doesn’t work. Found my old key and they don’t look the same. Could this be the problem?

When there are dashes on your odometer the communication from your cluster to your powertrain control module has been lost. The key has nothing to do with that. A bad pcm power relay, bad ground, or a bad pcm (powertrain control module) are the usual suspects. On the passenger side shock tower there is a ground that goes into a small square shaped block that I've had issues with the wire coming out of the block so I just splice in a new wire with an eye terminal to a good body ground and be done with it. I included a wire diagram of the pcm power circuit.
