After replacing passenger doors, instrument cluster doesn't come on
What is your question?
This question pertains to a 2012 Ford Focus Titanium Hatchback. I got in an accident, punctured the side of my passenger doors, removed my doors and replaced with 2012 Ford Focus Hatchback (not titanium) passenger doors. Once I connected the new doors, my passive anti-theft alarm went off. I fixed this by placing my key fob in the ignition (my car is push to start). The car turns on now, but my doors don't lock, windows don't work, and my instrument cluster doesn't illuminate when the car starts. Please note I did not transfer the central locking module from my original doors to the replacement doors (I think this is why I can't lock the doors/use windows?). The instrument cluster is what worries me the most. I checked the fuse and confirmed it isn't blown. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
What makes this problem better or worse?

Hello, it's probably a concern with the doors you used. It's possible that the anti-theft system -- not the one related to the key programing required to start the vehicle - but the perimeter anti-theft system, has malfunctioned due to a lack of compatibility of components.
When you have troubles, always look towards the variables present. In this case, you put different doors on. Problems started. Some kind of incompatibility exists.
