Changed plug wires,,now car won't start.

Can anyone help? Changed the plug wires and coil. Put everything back together and the car doesn't start. As far as I know I reconnected everything, put all the wires back in right firing order just won't start. Thank you for any replies. Does anyone know what the little black sensor is right above the coil on the same bracket, I was thinking that might be the problem.

Make sure y ou have the wires back on the right way, if you look at the opti. it has the cylinder # where each of the wires go in........check........recheck.......and recheck. Everyone of us on this site who has worked on there more than a couple of times has more than likely swapped one or two of those wires (it happens nomatter how good we THINK we are) lol. I believe the box above the coil you are speeking of is the ICM (ignition coil module). Look at this pic, is that what you're talking about? http://shbox.com/1/coil_loc.jpg .
