help...help...help

I just replaced my ignition on a 1990 civic h/b. everything that I unplugged I plugged back in, but now I can not get the car to start. It is as if there is now power going to the starter, when hte turn the key on all acccessories work, it just won't crank.

Any help would be great.

Thank you

Did you clean your ground wire connection from the battery to the transaxle?

Also check to make sure the single wire is clipped in on your starter.
