Hello all , Ive got problem , I replaced the battery in my 95 xjr as the battery before woundnt hold a charge. Put the new one in now she wont start

.......what gives ?? I read through the old threads and didnt see anything regarding batt replacement . Im guessing it has to do with the security system . Is there a re-learn protocol when the car is powered down ??? Any help would be great
Thanks

It cranks and thats it.
When I tried to start it with the previous batt , it barely cranked and I noticed the gauges going crazy . Im pretty much a gear head but Jags are DIFFERENT from what im used too. Any ideas ? ( fuses to fuel pump , relays ))
