I haven't even put the starter in yet but when I was striping wires I accedentally broke the blue wire(ignition) and I soldered it back together, then when I was stripping the brown wire(Accessories) I saw a spark I didnn't think I had touched any metal but I guess its possible judging by the no start I'm getting with the key. So now when I try to start it with the key the car doesn't start. If any one has more experience with Ions I would appreciate any help in trouoble shouting the problem thanks in advance.

does the car crank and not turn over, or not even a crank?

Thanks for the reply, I actually found a blown fuse to the ignition a small 2 amp fuse that in the center console by the gass pedal. I guess when I was stripping the wires I blew that fuse. It works good now. Thanks again, I hope this helps someone else too as a potential solution to similar problems.
