Default Removd SRS now car won;t start

I removed the SRS from my car and now the [freak]er won't start, in fact it won't even try to turn over at all. I know others have removed it, so if someone can help me out, that would be great.

how would you reset your ecu, do you need to take it in to a honda shop and have them reset the ecu?

You can reset your ECU by disconnecting the battery teminals and waiting ten minutes, then proceesto start the car up.

I'll double check the wires on the steering column, I'm pretty sure I got them all hooked back up, but hopefully I just missed one.

Well, I went out and checked to make sure everything hooked up at the column. Checked out good, try to start it again. Nothing, but this time I heard the fuel pump kick on like it's supposed to. I guess with the rain last night, I missed it.

So I checked to make sure I didn't hit the back of the column at any point and break any of the solders, they looked good as new. Decided to see if maybe my neutral safety switch failed, because there's no way the start would just flat out **** out on me. I crawl up under, it's engaging properly, not sticking or dragging. Start to pull the fuse box down, and what do you know, at some point I apparantly unhooked the neutral safety switch. I don't remember it, but hooked it up and she started up fine. Damn I feel like an idiot.
