Wow guys it was all caused by a 5 amp fuse in the glovebox, I searched battery install problem on search and about the 5th page I found someone with the same exact problem piece by piece and he said it was a 5 amp fuse. So I go to autozone to check the fuses and what do you know he says a 5 is blown I replaced it, restarted the car and wow everything works alarm, window, no more transmission faulty, or electrical malfunctions just writting this so if anyone else has this easy problem to have It can be fixed easily.Its not about registering your battery in a blown 5 amp fuse In the glove department

Wow... Thanks for letting us know. Thank God it wasnt any complicated than that. Sometimes the smallest issues are the most annoying. Happy it all worked out for you.

for future reference, you can also hook a battery pack up to the obd port while changing the battery so there are no issues.
