As long as it is getting power there isn't much else related to the PS wiring.  Maybe you loosened the data cable when you plugged in the power. Check to make sure the data cable is fully seated. Check all plugins on that data cable, including the master, slave and where it plugs into the motherboard.  Also make sure you have the data cable plugged in correctly (pin 1 to pin 1).  Most only go in the right way, but it can be forced in the wrong way.  Make sure it's right.
