Could be many things. Did you disconnect the battery before doing all the work? Otherwise you have simply blown a fuse somewhere.But it's a hard thing for someone to diagnose over the internet, it may be something really simple, that someone would pick up on straight away, if they were to look at it in person.

have you put the remote wire back on? Have you got your earth and remote wires mixed up?
Get a multimeter.....
Check for continuity between the earth terminal and the chassis.
Test for volts between the battery terminal and earth, then test for volts between remote and earth (h/u on for remote volts)
No volts on battery terminal : Test continuity of ALL fuses on that line.
If you get the correct readings, the amp should function.
If the amp does not power up, it's possibly got a bad solder joint on the terminal strip (internal). I had this on a new pioneer amp - I pulled it apart and was shocked at the poor soldering standards. I used to think pioneer were pretty good..... wouldn't trust them now.
If you need help, let me know - I live at largs (adelaide).
