Replaced steering column, car wont start

I replaced my column and I am positive that I hooked all the connetions back up because everything works. The wipers, dimmer, lights, brights, and when I turn the key to the on position I can hear the fuel pump turn on and then nothing. When I turn the key to crank it over theres nothing, no clicking or grinding just nothen.
I thought if it was the ignition switch that I wouldent have any type of power when I turned the key to the on position. Oh, after i try to turn her over when I turn the key back to lock position and take the key out the security light stays on for about 2 minutes, this has never happened until now. Me and my dad tryed to push start it and it ran for about 3 seconds then died. I think it's somthing with the computer, any guesses, or has this happend to anyone else?
Thanks alot.

When you turn the key to ON (and don't try to start), does the security lamp go out after 5 seconds or so?
