On passenger side, set low near engine head is the Dual Climate Control Valve (DCCV). Disturbance of its electrical connection could prohibit circulation of hot coolant into the heater control unit. Check DCCV electrical connection. Due to replacement of plugs; perform a hard re-set of ECU (disconnect both pos. and neg. battery cables from battery terminals, touch them together then place back on after 30 minutes). Others will be here to help soon.

Then perhaps you didn't disturbe the electrical connector? I'm not certain; but access to the DCCV is through the passenger wheel well with wheel removed. Check this forums' search feature on "DCCV", etc. Don't become too worried. There are several very knowledgeable's here to further help you.

Be very careful when working with the coolant connector clips as they can break or disturb the o-ring seals within them. This is one of the reasons my 03 STR is presently in the shop. A mechanic trying to install a supercharger pulley messed with them and....

What did you unplug? Don't disturb too much. If the heat/a/c system worked prior to plug change the issue may not be due to DCCV. Check for unplugged or loosened electrical connectors near plug work.
