Bad starter motor, bad battery connections, bad battery, bad earth, for the last one you could try putting a jump lead cable from the battery earth terminal on to a part of the engine to rule it out, how am I doing so far.

Is the battery the same spec as the previous one ? New or s/h ? Next place to look is all connections, earths and then starter, odd everything was good previous to you messing with injector

What is the spec of the battery, the old one may have been to small especially if you have a vogue trim model they need to be 120ah 1000cca and will only fit with mm`s to spare .

A new battery should be charged for 24 hours before fitting unless you have a very powerful charger, 5 hours on a standard 4 amp charger will do very little.
