check the fuel pump fuse- cigar lighter fuse, you may have shorted the wires.
put in the stock radio, does your car start, if it does then its the radio causing the problem, if not then more problems then the radio. if it does start with the stock radio in i would think the aftermarket radio is causing some kind of fault in the car, perhaps the radio is sending a faulty message in the i-bus telling the car not to start. i would jump out any bus wires so they are not routed through the aftermarket radio and see what happens. good luck.
Saturn is a gas planet. I really don't think saturn can change for people because it is in it's own world.
i there a switch on a saturn that would cause it not to start Yes the neutral safety switch.
Loose or corroded battery cable? Engine seized? Bad starter? Bad starter solenoid? Bad neutral safety switch?

It would, if you changed out the trans and the ecm/tcm. The SL2 SC2 transmissions have a different higher reving gear ratio.
Check the 97 Saturn for fire at the spark plugs, and proper fuel pressure. One of these two are probably the cause of the vehicle not starting.
It will If you willing to do the work the radio harness is different and the radio trim bezel changed in 2003 so you would have to make it work.
The radio unit is stowed under the drivers seat. I would suspect the fuse that is on the back of the radio unit has blown (happened to me after a muppet tried to jump start off me). You will need to remove the drivers seat and the on the back of the radio unit itself where the connectors are it has a blade fuse (i think its red) that will need to be changed. Hope this helps.
There are several different areas to get information about parts for a Saturn. I would start by going to a local auto parts store and checking there. They will have what you need.
It would but saturn ion cd players are huge and suck you'd be better off buying a new head unit all together ......., Saturn owner 420
This may help. On older vehicles, unless one used "resister" type spark plugs, one would get a lot of engine noise through the radio.
