Power FC has power, but no CEL, car won't start

Hello! I recently removed the FJO Enterprises wideband controller from my 94. I did not see any connections going to a downstream system and the car ran fine immediately after removal. I also started fishing wires through the center speaker for a guage pod install but haven't yet connected into anything.

Car cranks but won't start. 12.8v at the terminals. I see through search that I should see a CEL with ignition on unless the ECU isn't getting power but I have the kickplate off and can see the Power FC light on and the handheld unit seems navigable. I also have a dimly lit battery light, which I don't recall before. Should I see a CEL with Power FC same as stock ECU? Thanks.

How old is the battery? when you crank what does the PowerFC show for battery volts, not resting, while cranking.
-check all grounds throughout the car. Check all fuses .
-Check voltage to the fuel pump.
