Default 86 C4 not cranking help help help!!!

yesterday I completed putting in a new power sterring pump and new fuel lines. After putting everything back toghether tha car will not crank. I have looked at the wiring and it seems that everything is back toghether. I have bought a new battery and tried 3 different keys because it seems like a security delay. Does anyone have an idea or can you tell me how to bypass the security system. I hear the fuel pump when I try to crank I get nothing

check the crank wire going to the starter solenoid. I think its purple. Maybe you knocked it loose. The fuel lines run fairly close.
