Are all your wires put back where they were before the hot wiring?

You can't just "hotwire" a modern vehicle that has electronic keys and an immobilizer the way you would with a 1965 Chevy. If you're lucky you just disturbed some wiring, as @fordfan pointed out, so double-check the area you were working in.

On the other hand if you're unlucky you may have fried computer modules. To test that you need a dealer-level scan tool that can do bidirectional testing, which on that vehicle would be a Tech2 or a scanner with equivalent functionality.
