Inadvertently left TPS unplugged. Now car won't start! 200 1991

Does this make sense?! I left the throttle position sensor unplugged briefly. I unplugged it to better get at the idle air valve. After realizing it and plugging back in, it still won't start. Is there a viable explanation for this? Jim

Could TPS and IAC plugs have been switched? (just a hunch) [NMI] 200 1991

what's the no start like? cranking, but doesn't fire? did you check for spark and fuel? maybe left something else disconnected?

I had mine unplugged for a week once. The car ran fine other then a slow to idle condition.
I don't think the No Start is related.
