e30 dash replacement question

[Dozyproductions]

Are you asking why the stuff that you unplugged won't work? Is the battery connected? I don't know what you have to unplug to do this but was one of the plugs something that has to do with the car starting?

whatever was needed to be unplugged in order to get the dash out, i unplugged and just left it like that until tomorrow when i get the new dash

[PeteD]

Did you recheck your connections yet?

[e30Hungry]

alright so when i put in the new dash it'll all work?

[TurboJake]

Either the lack of pixie dust, or an electrical problem/connection.

[e30Hungry]

Out of curiosity, whats stopping it from turning on then

[TurboJake]

Absolutely.

I just finished taking out my old dash and my car is ready for the new one to go in. I tried starting it and it wont start, neither do the windows go up. Is this normal?
