It sounds like to me that when they hooked up the stereo, they hooked it to the fuse box in with the ignition and they got some of the wires turned around. Or the switch in the collum is gone bad.

cranks but wont run
 
they just jumped it straight to the radio fuse in the fuse box if the ignition switch is bad how would i go about testing it to see if that is it or not thank you for your reply your help is very much appreciated
