Took out the coolant temperature sensor to clean it up since i had a CEL reading for it, put it back in and now I get nothing. Doesn't crank. Nuetral safety switch checked, all fuses and relays checked with nothing wrong. Any ideas?

I'm thinking it's purely coincidental that it won't start after cleaning the temp sensor......probably some other reason for the "no start". If the temp sensor is unplugged, the efan defaults to "on" and CEL is set.
