1972 International Scout

I replaced the starter in my Scout. When I tried to start it up nothing happened. I tried turning on the lights but nothing happened there either. I don't know what the problem is. What could be the possibilities and what are the procedures to fix it?

check to see if you have power going to the starter to begin with , then check to se if it is wired right. Sounds like the wiring may have been placed on the wrongplaces to make it start....
