Default car will not turn over with key

i just got done putting my car together and everything turns on like radio, fuel pump, gauges, etc. but when i go to turn the car over nothing happens, i have everything plugged up except i dont have the radiator, ac condensor or e fans in but i dont think that would be a prob. Can anyone help me out?

Does the car make any sounds when you try to crank it?

Sounds like the BCM isn't letting the relay engage for the anti-theft, jump the relay

In the engine wiring harness junction block 2, which is located on the left side of the engine compartment. There are 2 junction blocks there, the rearward one is #2 The relay should have 4 wires a dark green, a yellow with a black stripe, A purple wire, and a red wire. you want to jump the red to the purple and try to start it.
