4th Generation Dash Troubles

Hey guys, decided to get my car ready for the car show this weekend, and started finishing painting all of the rest of the interior. Got everything out okay, and then put the dash back in along with 1 seat. Turn the car on, and I have a CEL on, trac is flashing, ABS is on, my backup lights arent working, my speedo sits still at 0 nomatter what and the indicator lights in the cluster for PRND2L arent working. Also, when driving I went to put it into 2nd gear and it didnt do anything, just felt exactly like drive. My shifts see to be messed up alot too. Just wondering if anyone can give some help/advice on my problems. interior(for what we got done) looks awesome, still havnt gotten that damn hazard/2vent cover back on that thing is impossible, just these little technical problems that are worrying me. any thoughts/advice is awesome, id go take a picture but the flash on our camera is broken so maybe 2morro morning. thanks in advance for any help good night

Got the traction/abs light off...went to autozone to pull up my CEL codes, they are Po100, Po101, Po500, and Po505...they are all sensors(100 and 101 are MAF related and the 500s are speed sensor related) the people there said to give it a week b/c i unplugged the ecu, now it has to learn these all over(any thoughts?) well thats all ive gotten so far

anybody have any ideas on how to get the center vent piece back in? ive been figeting with it for about half an hour now and cant get it in, need to go re-spray the parts too. there has to be an easier way(im thinking of just cutting off the piece that gets bolted to the dash, itd make things so much easier)

those were some weird problems, so it figures that it's a crossed wire.

Doors are easy, just take out the screws in the skin/panel, be careful w/ the screw cover on the interior door handle, it will break easily. Take a flathead, wrap the end in tape to prevent scratches, and put it in b/w the lock switch and the handle and lift slightly, do it underneath it the same way. Most people have problems getting the cover off the lock/handle. After that it's real easy.
