Default Crank but no start after changing plugs & wires

I have a 2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT with the 3.0L V6 5 speed and just finished changing the plugs, wires, valve cover gaskets and upper intake gasket, I also put in a new battery. Paid attention while taking it apart and back together so I thought but now it won't start. The engine turns over fine, has fuel but not sure if it has spark yet. The OBD2 code says EGR transducer open or shorted. All connectors are connected as far as I can tell. Am I missing something with this EGR thing? Any help or pointers would be appreciated.

Check around the manifold, make sure you didn't catch a wire or something like that, could be causing a short in the EGR circuit. Almost all sensors require a 5 volt reference, so if that 5 volt is grounded, nothing with work.
