2002 Escape not turning over
I was having problems with my 02 Escape of misfire on cylinders. After doing a lot of checking, changing spark plugs, changing coils, ect, I decided that it could be the computer. So, I ordered one and put it in. When I turned on the key, all the gauges pegged and then came back to zero, but it acted like someone cut the power line to the starter. No click, no nothing. I checked fuses and they are fine. Even changed them around to make sure. Is there something that I have to do when you change the computer to get it to start? Had no problems with the starter prior, so it has to be something associated with the computer and changing it.
Thanks in advance.

You CANNOT simply swap out the computer, it will DISABLE the whole engine. You have to reprogram the security system at the same time. Dealer or well equipped locksmith job, maybe a high-end mechanic's shop can do it.
