Car wont start, key light

As the title reads, back in november my engine went out(unknown causes, likely previous owner abuse and poor maintenance) but I just got the new engine, pulled from a 2017 infiniti qx70 with 22xxx miles on it, the engine went in with few issues and the car started immediately after, but they(dealership the car is at) turned it off, and cant get the car to even crank, when you get in the car the key light is on and the car tells you to push the button, push the button and acc turns on, push brakes and push button, nothing, no click, nothing, screen on dash flickers, the battery is good starter is good alternator is good, the key has been reprogrammed to the car to attempt to fix the issue, no cigar, if anyone has had a problem like this before and knows a possible fix, please let me know and save me the money of the dealership spending weeks trying to diagnose this issue, I have attached pictures from the ECUTEK bluetooth scanner with the ECM and BCM codes

if these codes are current, then it’s not gonna work. The tcm isn’t communicating with the car, which is in the transmission. Wiring could cause this, or a blown tcm.
