I just replace the starter DIY style on 2005 dodge neon SE, the next day the check engine light came on- think this is related?

My car would not start, battery was only 3 month old, so I replaced the starter myself this weekend The next day the check engine light came on. When replacing the starter I had to disconnect the battery and battery housing, disconnected the air intake box thingy and stupidly detached the radiator hose but quickly put that back on. Should I assume I just messed up on the reattaching parts or could something more serious be at work here.

2003 dodge neon my son knocked it out of d into neutral. car cut off and now it won't crank. tested starter, battery,and fuses all good .. i replaced neutral saftey switch in transmission.. nothing all...

You've checked all the fuses. The fuse's in question
are #9 #10 #11 these are ign/start related. Also in the
power dist. center under the hood left side by the battery, check fuse #21. The starter relay is also
located in the pwr. dist ctr. Also if you have a factory
anti theft system. It could cause this problem.
Hope this helps.

Dodge Neon 2005) Car will not start.

I was having the same exact problem with my 2005 neon as well. The guy at Discount auto suggested the starter itself was the problem(cost approx $200). The car isn't old enough to be having a starter issue so I figured it was something more simplilar. My dad took a look and founf out it was the starter relay. It is located in the black fuse/relay box on the driver's side right next to the battery. I had to get a new relay at the dealership(cost $20) and my car starts perfectly. Hope this helps
