Thermostat change resulting in electrical problem

I changed the thermostat on my 1986 CRX SI. Once I got the housing back on and everything hooked up properly, I tried to start the car and it did not start. I thought I broke the ground wire that hooks up directly to the housing. I replaced those wires and the cor will still not turn over. There is an electrical problem somewhere, but I am not sure where to look. Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone have any ideas?

did it even attempt to turn over? or is there a complete lack of power? do any of the other electrical components work? and check to make sure every thing is plugged in...

how in the hell did you manage that? :confused:

first make sure your wires are hooked up to your battery. you possible got coolant on an electricial item, which may have caused it to short out

I kept going over and over my work and found the loose starter wire. I must have knocked it loose when I was done around there. I have big hands so that was the problem. Plugged that back in and everything works fine now. Thanks for your help, anyway.
