Yet another issue. Need advice

So I was installing Angel Eyes Wiring harness that I bought from EAS. I connect and T'd properly. I got the DIY from this link:

http://www.xoutpost.com/articles/x5/...-2003-x5s.html

After getting everything connect, I then connected the angels eyes to the harness and I could not get them to work. That was issue #1. After telling myself, I'll get some advice online and see what happens and leave the work off for tomorrow. I then started the car and to my surprise, it would not turn on. It kept cranking and cranking and could not get it to turn over. Now I was like man, I fucked up. Because in order for me to get the angel eyes to work, I had to splice into the ignition wire on the ECU harness. But I didn't do any major harm to the wire but T'd a T onto it. That was issue #2.

#1: Could not get the angels eyes to light up.
#2: X5 cranks but cannot get itself to start.

Here's some pics of the work and a video of the truck trying to start. Please give me some advice on what it could be. I'm more worried about the car not being able to start then getting the AE to work.

Thanks again.
