Under the hood - Are you using mx-3 fusebox or protege fusebox?

There are two thick solid blue wires from the mx3 fusebox - did you match those properly with the protege harness? One of those wires goes directly to the starter....
If you had mixed them up try reversing them maybe.....

Make sure your backup light switch is hooked up on your transmission and also check the small female connector on the starter, it might have come loose or be corodded just enough to not run. Worse case scenario you have a crossed wire in there somewhere. I had a hot wire grounded out on my 323 one time and the starter would not work.
