I had the exact same problem and after trying new camshaft and crank sensors to no avail, it ended up being the ignition relay. It seems more likely that yours may be related to the crank sensor since it was unplugged, but as long as everything was reconnected properly, I don't see how that could cause any harm. There are certain situations that require a crank position relearn, but unplugging and reconnecting the sensor shouldn't require that (unless, perhaps, you tried to turn the car over with the crank sensor unplugged).
I would recommend trying the ignition relay first, as it's only a $13 part that can be returned to AutoZone (or wherever) if it doesn't work.
Hope this helps, I know it's frustrating.
