Exclamation HELP!!! 1992 sc400 wont start up

ok here it goes, yesterday afternoon i took my stock stereo out and while i was doing it i had the car in neutral and the key was turned all the way to the left. i had to unplug all the wires, including the wires under the shifter that control the electric and normal power in the transmission, and the ac power wire over the radio. i also unplugged the wires under the stereo. after i unplugged the wires and took the stereo out, i plugged them back in, with the car in neutral still and the key all the way to the left. the car started yesterday when i took it out of the garage and my brother drove it too, but the ac and the electric and normal power on the transmission werent getting any power even tho the wires were plugged in. But today i put it in my garage again to change the interior lights, after i got done i backed it up without starting it in neutral and while it was rolling backward in neutral i tried starting it and it doesnt start... when i turn the iginition the engine jus keeps making the sound like its gonna start but the engine doesnt catch.. any ideas on what is wrong...and i checked the timing belt, its fine...
help would be much appreciated!
