car wont crank

ok tested the batt at autozone, tested ok, when i put the new starter in a few weeks ago i remember i didnt secure the purple wire going to the starter, could that be the cause if it came off. thats all i can think of...
what does that purple wire do. went i turn the key on everything goes on like the lights radio etc...
