OK so did you check to make sure no wires got pinched when the head was put back on? Did all the electrical grounds get but back in place? Did everything get pluged back in? Let me know what you can and we will go from there.

Ok you need to get the right key and have it programed to accept that key and put it back to being right. There is no real easy way to bypass an alarm system as it tied into the system.
