HELP!! Immobilizer system issue

I was doing the fog light rewire per the DIY sticky. I must have done something incorrectly because after the procedure the fog lights didn't come on at all.
So I reconnected the wire back to stock, and checked, all lights worked fine including the fogs and the car started normally. At that point I decided to leave it alone until I got further clarification.
Twenty minutes later I went out to head to Radio Shack and the car won't start.
Turn the key and get nothing! No crank, no clicking. Just a door ajar light and the flashing immobilizer symbol on the dash. I disconnected the battery, reconnected it, still nothing. Any suggestions??? I'm seriously stuck here and a search on the forum doesn't really answer how to disable or reset the immobilizer system.

Thanks RX8XTC. It turns out I cooked the ignition fuse in my first attempt to do the fog light rewire. All good now, it starts and the fogs work independently.
