wont turn over

Ok, I got some great advice from my previous posts. Here is what is going on. My 1984 928 would turn over when I got it had week spark but I got it to "pop" once. After looking for info on this forum I did the following. Cleaned 14 pin connector, cleaned as many grounds as I could find. ( (the ground charts don't seem to be accurate for my car or I just don't know what I am looking for.) Cleaned 1/2 of the fuses and connections so far and pulled cleaned and reset all of the relays. I replaced the "green Wire" and installed a brand new ground strap for the battery. I also dropped the alternator and cleaned all the connections and stripped back some of the corroded wires and made new connections.

Here is what happened: when I put the battery back in the horn would sound! I looked around to find something obvious but I could not. I then pulled the fuse for the horn. when I try to start the car It wont even turn over like it used to it does nothing! Now I am frustrated I feel like I took two steps back. Is it something I did or is this just a new problem?
