Why Does The Van Crank But Not Start?

Ignition was replaced because keys got lost.Mechanics didn't reset the computer when ignition was done. Before, van had to be cranked 8 times for it to start up or whenever security light came on. Van won't start now at all, just cranks. Now only lights(in & out), radio, dashboard, fuel pump, power windows, & locks work when cranked. Any solutions to fix problem?

Here are the basic checks:
  • Spark on several cylinders
  • Fuel pressure (should be something like 50-60psi)
  • Try carb clearner and try starting
  • Check for OBD dignostic codes the computer may have generated
