2007 S60 2.5T no start

The car had a broken oil pan, which I replaced, and now when I turn the switch it will only crank for four times(exactly four) and won't start. Could it be some sort of oil pressure protection circuit- after all the oil was lost at once, may be there is a sensor which went bad?

DICE will not connect, I re-seated the ECU and reconnected battery with key in the ignition- still the same, will try with a new battery just to make sure it's not something simple as low amps

Please update on this- my son's car is the same model and year as yours and I'm very interested. Was it indeed a bad battery or something else?

Definitely not a battery problem, did try with two jumper cables hooked directly to engine ground/ positive terminal near relay/fuse box to a running car ( one of my other 760 turbo I have) I believe is something to do with impact on sump/ sub-frame- there is a wire harness near the starter, and I am guessing something is lose as the starter will not spin engine more than 4 to 5 times, or could be just the starter- good news is I have bunch of spare parts and if I have to will swap the starter too. At this point I just need to hear this engine running, so I can start worrying about the cosmetic problems.
There is a little ding on the valve body cover (near tran. oil deep stick) and I don't know if this has anything to do with the no start condition yet.

And she came back to life!
It was the front E Mount which was broken and was touching the wiring around the starter- every time a Volvo comes back to life you get the ultimate satisfaction- the insurance people were trying to put you in the Junk yard, but you are going back to life, to the busy streets, to transport our precious children!
