Default Lost power seat function ! ?

Put a CB radio in my 2002 coupe today. I connected the power wire to the CB radio to the hot wire at the connection to the driver's side power seat, as I have done in the past on another C5.

Somehow, I managed to make the power seat inoperative! There is still power to the hot wire I connected the radio to.

Also, the telescoping function for the steering column is now inoperative.
What the heck did I do? This really isn't rocket science.

Any ideas?

There is power to both sides of the splice, so I'm thinking the splice is good.
