Need more details. What is it doing? Turning over and not starting or nothing when you turn the key? If the cel came on you should be able to turn the switch on and watch the flashes on the ecu led (assuming the switch is sending power to the ecu).

Read the CEL code from the LED on the ECU. See CEL code sticky at the top.
