Default HELP! Replaced S Pipe O2 Sensor now car won't start.

Working on a friends car, where someone added a anti defouler to the car and now the car will not start. It will turn over but just won't kick on. Disconnected battery and let the car's power drain, re-termined the O2 connection with another O2 sensor but still no improvements. Anyone have any ideas?

Front o2 sensor will cause car to run lean/rich. Secondary o2 sensor is only to check cat converter efficiency.

check your key, transponder chip should be near the ignition to fully turn on.
