Exclamation HELp!!!! Greddy turbo timer install now car wont start.

Okay so I have a 1988 TurboII with a haltech E6K.
I got a Greddy turbo timer and the harness for the FC so I wouldn't have to cut anything.
So I plugged it in right now and grounded it and the turbo timer worked fine.
Then I went to start the car and it wouldn't turn over. The starter isn't doing anything. I don't even hear the solenoid clicking.
SO I remove the turbo timer wiring from the car disabling it completely.
SO the turbo timer is removed and it's stil the same.
No start.
The battery is fine.
and no other wiring was disturbed during the install.
I am rather familiar with wiring, I have been doing stereo installs and tv/ vcr repair for years as a hobby. And I'm pretty much mechanically inclined. I work on these things all the time.
What the hell is up with my hoopty now?!?!?
Help!!!!

did you disconnect the battery before you started plugging/unplugging stuffs?

Yes I did....
I figured out the problem already.
It seems that the black wire with the red line on it was disconnected.
I didn't realize it since I didn't pull the harness down to do the install.
It came unplugged because someone had cut the stock clip off and replaced it with a spade terminal. So it slid out with little effort.
Everything is good now.
It all works.
