My PSD won't start need help....

hi y'all I was working on my 2004 Ford F350 6.0 Diesel FX4 the a/c compressor clutch ( clutch only ) i removed inner plastic fender and got access just to see if it was possible do to this job at the rv park ground... I got the outer part of the clutch of so I installed it back on to pick up new clutch assembly..... but now the Truck would not start up but still turned the motor.... I try it for few times and still would not fire up.........
I notice water in fuel on instrument panel.... so i drained the valve on the fuel filter housing under the the truck... and still nothing now dead batteries......
got new batteries and installed them... checked the fuel shut off valve inside the cab on front passenger side behind the kick panel still no luck.........

If you have any info please help I am stranded in TX.

SINCERELY PFC SIGURDSSON US.ARMY

Try turning the ignition to ON, but don't start. Leave it there for 30 seconds, then turn ignition OFF. Repeat that 6 times. Then try to start.

Check all plugs around where you were working. You might have accidently unplugged a sensor.

The suggestion to check for unplugged sensors is a good one.

The camshaft position sensor is located just below where you were working. It is possible that the connection to that sensor was disturbed.

If the truck ran fine before the AC work, then the problem is most likely related to what you were working on.
