sounds like it interrupted the cam signal to the PCM. Re check the connection to the light, make sure you didn't inadvertently kill the signal/cut the wire.
I take it you used one of the blue splice connectors... ?

It could be a bad ignition relay. My car started doing the same, the engine would crank but not start. $11 from Kragen. Relays are located in the fuse box under the hood. Hope that helps.

was that pin 35 (white wire) on the blue PCM connector cause that's the one it should be. if it was on the other connector, that may be causing your problem, however i don't know what is on that pin.
otherwise i would check all ignition relays and fuses and make sure that the fuel pump is priming before you go to start the car. if it's not, check those fuses too.
