Default '99 Grand Cherokee won't start, HELP!

I just replaced the heater core and finished re-assembling the dash and column. I believe I have the harness all plugged in but when I turn the key to the start position the radio goes silent, I hear a click then nothing. The starter doesn't engage. Any ideas?

Just an update; the starter relay is energizing when the key is in the start position and I have 12V on the source side of the relay but haven't checked for voltage at the starter yet. I would tend to beleive that I missed a connector and not have a bad starter. The timing is too coincidental.

Are you sure you reconnected the ground wires?
